Poetic Verses
Those Who Prayed for Me
I'm sure that those who prayed for me
Were glad I came back home
To escape the devil's lake of fire
That burns hot with brimstone.
I was not so much an evil man
Though to sin I oft was lured
Which coaxed me into thinking that
My destiny was assured.
But my eyes began to open
As I became aware
That I was so far from the Lord
And desperately needed prayer.
But alone, I didn't have the strength
To rise above the fray
I needed the help of others who
Did take the time to pray.
Yes, I'm sure that those who prayed for me
Were glad I came back home
To escape the devil's lake of fire
That burns hot with brimstone.
Were glad I came back home
To escape the devil's lake of fire
That burns hot with brimstone.
I was not so much an evil man
Though to sin I oft was lured
Which coaxed me into thinking that
My destiny was assured.
But my eyes began to open
As I became aware
That I was so far from the Lord
And desperately needed prayer.
But alone, I didn't have the strength
To rise above the fray
I needed the help of others who
Did take the time to pray.
Yes, I'm sure that those who prayed for me
Were glad I came back home
To escape the devil's lake of fire
That burns hot with brimstone.
