With sadistic delight
As I toss and turn
In my bed each night.
Then he whispers to me
With that wicked grin,
"You're hopeless, girl,
Give it up, you can't win!"
"Get away from me, Satan!",
I hear myself scream;
Then that horrible nightmare
Turns into a dream.
***
I envision my Savior
In a heavenly nook
Standing in front
Of a great big book.
He turns the pages
'Til He comes to my name;
Then He reads my record
As I cringe in shame.
For my page has marks
As black as coal,
So I begin to cry,
.."I'm a poor lost soul!"
But the Lord looked down
From heaven above,
And said to me
With such infinite love:
"Please don't cry,
And don't despair
For I have heard
Your humble prayer.
"I've erased your sins
Your page is white,
So sleep, my child,
In peace tonight!"

When Satan brings up YOUR past - Remind him of
HIS future!
