Esther

The death of My people the enemy had thought Would further their plans of all that they sought. So a plan was considered and a plot was set A scheme was devised of evil intent. It was Haman who plotted and it was Haman who schemed His heart full of hatred for those I esteemed. Lots were then cast for the great day of death The enemy would fight to remove your last breath. But My hand was there in your defense My armies awaiting My word to advance. So My people take heart for I Am your King And the armies of heaven on earth do I bring. The day then arrived; a day marked for pain On the enemy it turned for My people to gain. The battle was fierce and the slaughter was great My people took spoils of the enemy's gate. Many such battles must be fought and won Dauntless the spirit of My chosen ones. Dauntless in prayer; their words like a knife Dauntless in battle, giving their life. Their honour of Me is first in their heart And from My Presence again they'll never depart. So I will return the honour to them And fill all the earth with My Presence again.
