In God's Sanctuary

God has blessed me with sanctuary for when the demons inside come to play leading me from the voluptuary I walk with the Lord so there's no dismay The Lord's sanctum, like a suit of armor shielding all the attacks by the devil unaware, God's filling me with ardor wending me from, traveling in peril This protection only our Lord can give a gift reassuring I'll make it home so without the fear my life I will live now my destination's known I'll not roam In God's warm embrace is where I belong Keeping my spirit elated and strong 7/16/2017
