Dont Leave the Door Open

R-efrain from closing your eyes, 
A-lways be alert and aware; 
I-t's the devil that roams, 
S-howing his roar and anger. 
S-o don't leave the door open,man the wall and gate; 
A-im to be vigilant, equip with love, hope, and faith. 

B-e watchful seventeenth of January, 
I-nstead of sleeping neath the heaven; 
N-ever be oblivious or unmindful, 
D-on't leave the door 
O-pen.
