"Night Cries"
Some Nights I feel lost and wanting to cry
Some nights I say goodnight and Yet Fear to die
Some times are so tender I can't help but cry
and smile at my love for You, and Asking you Why?
Why did you leave me to die in my grief
Why sobbing beating and cries for relief
why do we sob terrified at the devils lonely roar
when the night falls so cold that you can't leave the door
Why is the call of the night so sobering and lonely
When the devil pierces the cries of night and shatters the stillness
and the devil's armies go breezing through the streets of town
"I do no fear them, I never Will" you cry as you soul pants hard and still
When Evil is all around looming in for the sheer kill
when your heart clutches hard at its own tender breath
when the devil tells all the town of that terror we call death
riding about through our proud little town
with soundless sirens blaring those soundless sounds
they are much more wicked and terrible than the wind
than the treest or the stars, you think, "This must be the end!"
I pray hard at this Unholiest Hour
I Pray That the sound is some broken lawnmower
When rushing rishing through the streets
the crime of the night watchman is made complete
In Jesus' Name,
Amen!
