he attacked from every angle
leaving us all disillusioned and confused
he dressed in a colorful robe and lured us in
to his lair of distress, anger, pride
he told us lies and riled us up
just to see us tear each other apart
we thought we could withstand it
our fortress so strong
but humanity is no threat to satan
without God between us and throughout us
a test we are failing, day to day
a trustworthy smile fading away
a kind hand offering help, gone
a quiet mouth and uplifted heart, fallen
and now i sit, reminiscing over a fallen home
asking the Teacher, if we can retake it
hold our hands so we can go through it together
give us the courage to jump over the quicksand,
knowing you'll be there to catch us on the other side
