The Prince of Peace

The enemy tortures my mind
Sends me trouble that I can’t right
He whispers in my ear of all I’ll find
When I look for joy, peace and light
There will be anger, despair and strife
He will send worry and depression
All the things that destroy my mind

Please, God, keep the enemy away from me
Force him to leave me alone within
Where all this trouble harasses me 
And causes me to question my very sanity
Please God, get the enemy to leave my mind
Fill me with joy, freedom and insight
Let him know he has no control over my life
That you are my strength and you’re always right

The enemy tries to control my very heart
With torturous words of all that is unnerving
He brings me pieces of heartbreak to linger on
And touches my soul with disillusionment
He always wants to bring me down to his level
Where there is nothing but pain and the devil
But, God, will answer me and free my heart to be
Joyful and happy, filled with gladness unimaginable

Please, God, keep the enemy away from me
Force him to leave me alone within
Where all this trouble harasses me 
And causes me to question my very sanity
Please God, get the enemy to leave my mind
Fill me with joy, freedom and insight
Let him know he has no control over my life
That you are my strength and you’re always right

Don’t let him near me, my glorious God
Keep me in your presence where I can find peace
Never leave me nor forsake me, sweet Jesus
Forever bring me closer to your spirit
Please bring me closer to thee, my Prince
