My Hero-God

There is something trying to pull me down,
Trying to crush this heart that belongs to God.
There is something that is trying so very hard to harm,
To destroy, to tear apart, to break. 

My sleep is broken up by thoughts of death.
All night long the attacks keep coming, one then another.
When one tactic doesn't work another is tried.
Until I wake in fear, in terror, at the sight of what I'd seen.

Darkness is trying to black our the light that lives within me.
The enemy thinks he has a hold on this child of God.
But he is a fool to think that he could ever take me.
An absolute powerless fool compared to my mighty Saviour. 

I am a child of Light, my God is Light itself.
Light lives in me, dwells in me, thrives in me.
Where there is light darkness has no hold.
I am a temple of God. I am protected and safe.

His words saturate my every fibre.
He knows exactly what is needed to calm, settle and build.
Where the lies were trying to take hold of me,
He fills with the promises of His Truth. 

I spend time in worship and praise.
Bible in hand I read of His love and His care.
"My Hero-God, He wraps Himself around me to protect me."
"O Lord, your are my God and my saving strength."

I hold firm to the knowledge that you see me, hear me.
You freed me from the grip of death.
Love is greater and stronger than any fear or terror.
Me sheltered under the wings of Most High.
