Poem Title:
Poem
Darkness made its bid to spread The demon raised its ugly head Everywhere I heard such dread “We’ve got you now”, the demon said Dark and ugly, full of lies Flying through the dirty skies All it wants to do is kill Following its master’s will Don’t listen to his nasty voice You have a better, purer choice “We’ve got you now” is just a lie That many just believe and die With fear he came with blackened day To interrupt what good folks say “Take this disease. You’ll die for sure” “You are no good and never were” His lies they permeate the air You will hear them almost everywhere “I’ve got you now; you can’t go on” “This battle I have surely won” Sick I felt, depressed at best But inside I knew that I was blessed With power to walk above the din Of darkest power that works in sin Then Words I leveled to the dark Shook the demon, hit the mark “We’ve got you now”, it lied again It hurled its fear to try to win “Out with you in Jesus’ name” “I won’t believe your lying game” Darkness shook and cowered down Ignoring that he’d heard the sound Resisting him I took my stand He played his cards; I won the hand Away he flew into the night He couldn’t stand against the light Defeated foe he came once more He hoped to find an open door And hiding out spoke words of dread “I’ve got you now”; I raised my head “Out with you in Jesus’ name” In anger once again he fled; he lost his game So when the enemy comes knocking, knocking at your door Don’t let him in, don’t fear and don’t believe him any more Resist him in the name of Jesus and send him on his way We don’t have to fear the darkness, and never, ever let him stay He will come to you with words of fear “I’ve got you now” is what you’ll hear
