Spirit Battle

I prayed, "Please God, come save me!"
I had fallen down again
The darkness overtook me
I had fallen into sin

My flesh was craving this world
It said, "A little sin's okay"
But my spirit man said, "No,
Keep you sinful thoughts at bay"

The Lord, he called out to me
He said, " Run to me my child"
But as I looked inside me
I realized I looked wild

My clothes were torn and tattered
My face was stained with tears
My skin was bruised and battered
Floating round me were my fears

"You kidding? You aren't worthy!"
Was all Satan had to say
That was enough to stop me
So I turned and walked away

That is when I did see it
God's mirror image of me
I stood there in amazement
And the Lord said, "You are clean."

My face had been dried and cleaned
I was dressed in white array
My skin was back to normal
And my fears were dashed away

The Lord said, "Ignore Satan
He tried to keep you away
He is just a pestilence
Of you he had been afraid"

"Because you are my fighter
And so valiant you are
He tried to squeeze you tighter
He just took you way too far"

"Well, he just failed miserably
Because now I have you back
And you're gonna stick with me
You will counter his attack"

I bowed down in God's throne room
For I knew that I was safe
My spirit battle was won
And my heart is now awake
