Supernatural

This is the place where the darkness invades
In the shadows they're lurking and plotting my fate
Mocking and cursing so impatiently restless
Grotesquely huddling against the gate.


The snarling subsides as attention is turning
In silence and terror they stare to the east
For the Heavens are opened and the angels defending
Come charging in power on command from the King


Trembling, cowering, resigned and retreating
The victors are coming, greater power they bring.
Shrieking and fleeing - the name of Christ Jesus,
The blood of the lamb, dissolving their schemes


Quietly, fervently, reverently whispering
"Jesus! Jesus!" the prayer of the saints
What Power! What Might! What Authority bringing!
Our war cry, our mission must never abate.


"For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places." Ephesians 6:12
