Every Thought Captive
I’m captivated by a verse from Paul:
take captive every thought that enters in
so that you might obey.
A cry is raised above the din;
hard pressed, I am assaulted, under siege.
To me! To me! I hear my lord and liege
and cast my eyes on him,
for when he’s standing tall, this world’s enticements pall.
