Forces Of Darkness

An invisible battle is waged. Revelations of the golden age, and the darkness cries out in rage. The wicked walk on every side, but I trust in the lord, God to be my guide. He looks down from Heaven on all men. He sees it all, righteousness and sin. Some prefer the darkness to the light, least their deeds be revealed in God's sight. To let in even a hint of darkness, their soul is laid bare. Night closes in and encamps around them, Evil setting a snare. Giving in to the temptation of the voices inside. Only to discover too late, they were Satan's lies. The wicked walk on every side. The path to salvation is narrow. The road to destruction is wide. As my spiritual battle is fought, I pray to the lord that my footsteps slip not. Keep me firmly on the narrow path. Guide me to do your will and not my own. Keep me away from the things you don't condone. I don't look to this world for treasures and gold. Only my lord restoreth my soul. Not one of us can afford to reject the inheritance he has stored for us in his heavenly home. Cast your lot upon the Lord, all of your sorrows and fears. Believe when you call upon his name, he will be quick to hear. There is no escape the wages of sin. Call on him now, before your light has grown dim. As I walk through the chasm of darkness, the wicked walk on every side. I struggle to make it through with all my might, I continue my walk, with my gaze held high, meditating on Heaven, continuously reaching for the light.
