Don’t Take The Bait

Temptation comes knocking, trying to get me to fall, Whispering my name like it knows me at all. But I know that voice, and I know where it leads, So I turn away before it plants the seed. I don't have to follow every thought in my mind, I can step away and leave that trouble behind. When the pressure gets heavy and I'm losing my way, I call on God and ask Him to guide me today. [HOOK] Don't take the bait, don't walk into the trap, When temptation calls, you don't have to call back. Step away, pray hard, keep your eyes on the Lord, When the devil tries to pull you, stand firm in His Word. [VERSE 2] Sometimes the hardest battle is the choice that you make, Knowing when to walk away for your own soul's sake. Change your surroundings, don't feed that desire, When the temptation rises, take yourself higher. I'm not saying I'm perfect, I still have to fight, But God's giving me strength to choose what is right. I won't let one moment steal the path that I chose, I'll keep walking with God wherever He goes. [CHORUS] I won't take the bait, I won't fall for the lie, God is my strength when temptation gets high. I may face the battle, but I don't stand alone, With God beside me, I'm coming back home. I won't take the bait—I'm choosing His way, One step at a time, every night and every day. [OUTRO — PRAYER] Lord, when temptation comes, give me wisdom to see, Give me strength to walk away and keep You close to me. Guard my heart, guide my steps, and help me stay true. When I don't know what to do, Lord, I'll turn to You. Amen.
