You asked me to come and I denied your call,

Yet you showed me mercy and responded with grace.

But to get my attention you had to let me fall;

I confronted evil face to face.

My thoughts grew dark; my world grim;

My mind slowly slipped away.

My fear would grow when the lights grew dim;

When the night's shadows chased off the day.

Murderous thoughts that were not my own;

On my fear the devil did feed.

But you were there too, never leaving me alone;

Your love saved me in my time of need.

You loved me unconditionally, despite my lack of faith,

And thus, you saved me from a shadowy wraith.
