You came for me
And laughed right in
You the vulture
Me near dead..
My stench rose
Recognizable for miles
Stunck with failure
Of sin in trials..
Above me you hunted
Conniving with your wake
Waiting and preying
Which piece of me to take..
Anticipation mounted
Hunger fueled your flight
Watching me below
Never losing sight..
The silence unmistaken
Of what you came to do
The world took my light
Satan can’t have me too..
You’re built for destruction
Of a body cold and dead
My heart’s slowest beat
Refused to give up yet..
Though paralyzed I lay
Inside I woke
Jesus my healer
Fixed what evil broke..
Glanced the slightest movement
Knew I was alive
A lost opportunity
You’ll prey again another time.
I rose in shock and survival
Saved from my disgrace
Of death by choice, suicide
Alone in a barren place..
I know you’re always watching
Sitting with your volt
For me to fall again
And stumble in deaths hole.
But I will never die
I chose eternity.
Safe in Jesus Christ
Homebound, secure, and free.
