Dispeled

Hey, fellow people

There's something on my mind

I've something to share

So I'm going to tell you

While also making it known to myself

For I'm nobody special

And I need daily reminders

I'm no less vulnerable than you

 

Do you know of the darkness?

Do you know of the fear?

Have you had those engulfing experiences?

Have they put a strangle hold on you?  

Stopped you dead in your tracks?

Your hope scarce?

Your life on hold?

 

Well, there's a satisfying solution

 

Where there's Light,

Darkness cannot coexist.

Where there's Faith

Fear must back away

I stand unashamed

To speak of God

My faith in Jesus

In spite of living in a world

That often scoffs

For He not only gave me life

He saved my life

 

There is no better cure

Than God's light

And putting my trust in Him

Soothing all my anxieties

So where now is the darkness?

Where now is the fear?

This is what it is...

 

It's dispeled
