The Perilous Journey Part 1

I’ve watched as the warrior lifted up his sword I knew…that there was war close at hand – has the Lord Allowed this event to shape our majestic reputation? The horses panic… And gallop in hesitation It will begin shortly, the adrenalin Kicking in rapidly It feeds our strength… The miracle puts us in good hands Both sides are at each other’s throats again… Deliver us… Deliver us… Forgive us… Rescue us… Hear us out… As we pray for success for America’s victorious future Your hope was full, but your cup is half empty Instead of half full…why are you filled with envy? You witnessed all the fear spiraling in the atmosphere Their dignity and pride makes them envy our positivity The sun scorched Our serene spirits and forced Us to carry on now, the dread Taking away our cheers… Making us devour our fears Have no fear though He is our guide…our shield We’ll trek His field after we’re healed From our battle scars, Shimmering like illuminated stars Help us fight off those insidious enemies… Those thieves…those taunting, Snickering enmities… Deliver us… Deliver us… Forgive us… Construct us… Don’t forget about us… As we pray for triumph and equality to embrace us all
