Evil In the Air

There's evil in the air
I hear the devil talking in my ear
trying to fill me with fear
but I have no room for new nightmares
I already got too many cares to bare
so please Lord shut the devil up
he just wants to see me erupt
I've had enough
if my heart be a cup
pour out what he made corrupt
and let your love fill it up
and I hope he see that he can't break me
so by your blood
cast his presence away from me.
Amen.
Forgive and bless your son, Brian Keith.

Yes, the devil is always looking for someone to devour, but Jesus is greater. Jesus has already won the victory. Your poem is an honest heart-felt prayer. Love, Kim
