Light and Dark

There in the dark I see a scary looking thing
It’s creeping round gently with no smile in its grin.
It moves like a whisper through the thoughts in my head
And its scream, when you hear it, leaves you screaming instead.

The other side I see a shining shadow move
Light inside the darkness with a way that you can’t lose.
It’s calling out my name and I’m leaning to the truth
There’s more to your forgiveness when you have to choose.

There are two but just one in the end that has won.
There’s a hand that won’t close when He calls you to come.
There’s more to the more that we’ll never know.
Until we wake up one day to the light of His glow.
