Dented Armor
My armor’s dented,
But that’s ok.
It’s the armor of God,
It will never give way.
This armor it will
Never rust
Tho it be covered
With blood and dust.
Tho it’s heavy as all,
It’s comfortable, too
It protects me all
The way through and through.
It’s been good armor,
I treat it with care.
The shin guards are scared
From being on my knees in prayer.
My shield has protected me
Through the thick and thin
With this armor in battle
I can’t help but win.
I wear my helmet
To protect my mind
Because the battle I fight
Is a different kind.
Tho my armor may be a bit dented
I couldn’t live a day without it.
God gave me this armor when I repented
And I will never ever doubt it.
