Sin lieth at the door
And it’s hoping on you, to score.
When you know you’ve done wrong in God’s sight
The best thing is to make it right.
If God’s commandments you break or ignore
Sin lieth at the door
As a beast set to pounce on you
Wanting your soul to subdue.
When you’ve gone in the wrong direction
You risk losing God’s protection
Sin lieth at the door
Repent, and let God restore.
Today, perhaps all is well
You stand strong ‘gainst the gates of hell
But be watchful, evermore
Sin lieth at the door.

Gen 4:3-7 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.
And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering:
But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?
If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
Romans 6:12,16 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.
Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
