Dreams, Battles and Waking To Rejoice

Dreams, Battles and Waking To Rejoice Times that my mind wakes to take flight flying away in spheres of magical dreams So often are near hour of black midnight when dark powers dance with their schemes A journey into the devil's unholy realm to battle the hordes of his evil beasts Flying blind with no master at the helm slaying engorging demons at their feasts Girded with truth's invincible shield long sword of bravery in my right hand Solemn vow to die before I ever yield cutting out the heart of Lucifer's band Every battle goes on in a nip and tuck slaying the filthy beasts left and right Always my feet seem to get me stuck as daylight rises to defeat dark of night Times that my spirit chooses to wake victory is rewarded for valorous deeds I rejoice deeply for goodness sake as God's truth met my fighting needs Robert J.
