Poetry

Stand strong
In the dark don't allow your knees to grow weak
 
Stand strong
Be fore your adversary your strength will peak 
If you seek the Spirit of  the Humble and the meek
 
People with cold stone heart seek to devour people
Using weapons they have fashioned  from their mean streak
while they stumble around weak and lost in the dark
 
People with warm hearts of clay 
will find there way through the dark  following the light of faith
Using the shield of peace and the sword of Truth to ward of the attack of the  adversary 
 
Stand strong 
Don't fret  when some days you are met with the elements of weariness and dreariness
The Holy Spirit heals a weather beaten soul that is open to Him
 
Stand strong
Don't allow adversity to erode your God given hopes and dreams
Through faith in Christ all will overcome our adversary in this world
 
Stand strong
In the dark don't allow your knees to grow weak
