Like a Thief In the NightLike a thief in the night the Lord will come,
calling His people, His children home.

by not trusting God but relying on...

you stole my childhood from me.
I never realized I was...

A Thief In the NightAn Englishman's home is his castle,
A saying well known to most.
A place where you can relax,
A place with no fear of attacks.
An Englishman's home is his castle,
A place to store all life's treasures.
A place to keep all ones memories,
A place to enjoy all life's...

Like a Thief In the NightSorrow paid me a visit like a thief in the night,
Stealing my happiness with sinister delight.

Until then he was the man of my dreams.
When he saw me coming, he would...

Taking away that which I use to rejoice,
Leaving me a shell of a man ,

Thief In the Night
Thief in the night that stole my heart
Shot me with your poisoned dart
Took from me against my will
Be careful of that which you steal
Why do you have to be so obtuse?
Do you really think I like the abuse?
Dangling your promises on a thin straw
Promises broken...

The Thief In the NightTHE THIEF IN THE NIGHT
When the desert sun melted away
The armour I wore for protection,
Leaving me free to find my oasis
Of unalloyed pleasure, offered
Without stultifying conditions,
I no longer looked back, anxious
Of retaliatory strike on my spirit,
And in that momentary flash, knew
There would...

Looks inside the human heart filled with evil schemes

One of the key players will be bound and sent to the lake of fire for the seeds that he has sown.

He has a scent to him, that just hypnotizes me, and finally puts me in his trans.
His kisses so seductive. His touches make me melt.

Thief In the Nightunannounced rob you blind
let her come a thief in the night
