Resting With Closed Eyes - As Hell Retreats

We rest with closed eyes

Never knowing when someone will leave us behind

Instead we shut it down, we shut it off

We all become lost of what should always be found

Ignorance blinds us

Ignorance blinds us all from beauty

Beauty of having a thought for ourselves

Instead we discriminate the ones we love

And push them aside

The next thing, they leave the world

Our world, our arms, our grasp

And we can’t apologize anymore

Jesus, you only ask us to do one thing

That is to love all and serve all

But we become weak instead with demons

We become impure

We can fight this off, we can overcome

With you Lord, our Almighty

Amen
