With seducing fangs he pulls them in
Forever trapped in their own sin
Suck the blood of his prey
Now you wish upon yesterday
Never knowing what awaits
And that your life was always at stake
From the idea that entered the womb
until it's sparkle dies to gloom
Forever spun in his web
Of lies, murder and, hidden thread
His vain look upon the face
As your savior approches your case
The godly spider that herds the sheep
The sheep you are
The souls he reaps
Does the sun shine in his grasp?
Locking you tightly in his clasp
With a shriek you'll hear him calling
With running leaps your hope is falling
But he's your savior is he not?
This is what your life is now
Surrender to his heretic vow

I think I've been reading about this exact subject recently: wolves in sheeps clothing.

"Test everything, hold onto the good, reject that which is evil."

Suggestions: Line 7, remove "the".
Line 11, rewrite "Vanity writ upon his face".
Line 12, consider removing "your".

Being that it's subject to various interpretation, it's rather controvercial, but I think that's just part of it's charm.
Good work!
