DEMONS

Demons

Demons come and taunt me some days

They try to push and try to make me afraid.

I tell them to leave this place

I’m not their friend and this is my space.

The holy spirit lives in me,

They can’t touch me covered in God's grace.

I’ll stand my ground and with a loud shout

I’ll kick these evil spirits out.

Jesus is my strength,

I will not be afraid of their foul mouth

And grossly stench.

I’m battling the unseen and unknown

But I know what their future holds

And they know their time is short.

I’ve watched them in my dreams

Pacing back and forth

Looking for ways to get us to open closed doors

I’ve seen them watching as my family sleeps

Looking for ways to make us weep

Those pesky dumb creeps

In Jesus’ name they will leave

Because I know the good Lord takes care of his sheep.
