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
