Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: Because of Gods great love, we are not consumed. His compassion never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.

You heard a thump in the closet
That made the hairs on your neck
Stand up straight
You heard evil whispers
As you race to the front door
In a desperate attempt to escape
You said, "What have I done?
I have awoken the sleeping beast
With my sin."
You turn around to face him
You said, "No! I am weak!
But I have prayed
'God strengthen me'
And he has taught me to see
You are nothing without my fear
He is the Maker
I, his engineer"
