I can hear the enemy pounding at the door of my heart
Scratching, clawing, tearing at it, trying to get in
I see the the darkness closing in all around me
Suffocating me, pushing me towards the brink of destruction
I hear the enemy in my head, whispering in my ear
Telling me I'm no good, I am unclean, I am nothing
I see the people falling, being consumed by the devil
Falling into the awaiting jaws of the beast
I hear the lies being spewed like ***** in every direction
I see a nation being led astray
I hear the enemy
I see death

But Wait!

I hear the enemy turn and run!
Scrambling, crying, screaming to get away
I see the light bursting forth
Pushing me towards salvation
I hear the Lord in my head, declaring triumphantly
Telling me that I am great, I am blameless in Christ, I am everything to Him
I see the Chosen rising up, being protected by God
Diving into his loving arms and His sea of grace
I hear the Truth being proclaimed loudly in the streets
I see a generation seeking God
I hear the Lord
I see life
