Enemy Inside of Me
Enemy Inside of Me
I know what I have is at least one enemy;
It is temptation that lives inside of me,
And so deeply buried yet still secure;
How much of it can I really endure?
With God always surely am safe and sane
As long as inside me He does remain
I do pray daily while Bible am studying
And others their water may be muddying.
I also love reading God's each Psalm
Brings peace to my soul making me calm
Still things exist in world which do disturb
And I decided to read one more proverb.
While some in mud and sin may wallow
Only true Son of God will I forever follow
Until my last day when I have been dying
On God's Son still will continually be relying.
Jesus, enemy from me be sure to remove
So that my life again will start to improve
And no longer can there be another tragedy
God purified me, my soul and whole anatomy.
