Salvation

Darkness enveloping my skin Surrounding my body trying to get in Whispering to me that it will be ok Saying that things would be better that way Trying to sway me to believe Trying to captivate me as it deceives Darkness saying that what it is wrong is right Trying to fool me by night Grabbing at me at every turn Maybe some day the darkness will learn In the distance I see his light I see him before me shining bright My salvation for being on this earth Hew who gives me my self worth He grabs my hand and pulls me to his side He shelters me from the blackness in every stride Wrapping me in a shawl of divinity Holding my soul inside the glimmering purity Telling me when I am sick I shall endure Showing his love is the cure
