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

Desperation/Hope
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
