SALVATION
The very day I was born,
I turned a prisoner in the camp of the devil;
With deeds and thoughts ever torn,
Due to the struggle between good and evil.
Often what I would not, that I do;
And what I would, that I do not.
Evil always overcame good,
And sin my taskmaster dictated every step I took.
Suddenly one day, there shone a marvelous light,
Which in it's wake caused darkness to take flight;
My spirit was drawn to it like moth to flame,
A bloody cross where redemption awaited me to lay claim.
Without the slightest delay or hesitation,
I **** my burdens at the foot of the cross;
Took upon me the mark of salvation,
And joyfully stepped across
Ever since, I've known joy beyond comprehension,
And peace unimaginable;
For my past life of guilt and tension,
Was only leading me to hell full of torments unbearable.
