"Delivered From Satan's Bondage" Have you ever been really deep in prayer? But something begins to say, "Hey don't go there," It's the Devil trying to get you to not pray. It's an interference that tries to fool, And wants to make you fall, But with God it can't defeat you, That's why living for God is your call. Lord, I try so hard to stay near, But I always seem to stumble, The Devil tries to make me fear, He seems to make my life crumble. Lord, why is there so much temptation, It always makes someone slip, Lord we need a revelation, Lord help us not to trip. Lord have you seen all the world's evil and bad? My question is, will it ever end? The state the world's in is sad, When will we all be friends? Lord, help us when we seem to go astray, To pull us back on track, You hold us in your arms as we pray, There's nothing Lord that you lack. Lord, I'm trying with all my might, But the Devil keeps on, Help me when I start to lose sight, I know with you I've already won. Lord I know I don't begin to deserve you, Yet still you stand by me, You are what pulls me through, You make me the best that I can be. Lord, can't you see me trying? But the Devil just won't leave, Sometimes I can't stop Crying, But as I start to fall you grab me by the sleeve. Thank you for all of the times you've carried me, And wiped away all my tears, Thank you for making me see, And help calming my fears. by Lindsey Bates 9-26-00
