SLEEP

When a church is asleep
                And the slumber is deep
                The devil will leave it alone
                He is thrilled at the sight
                Of a comatose plight
                With a life that reminds him of stone.

                But if it should wake
                And the bones start to shake
                As The Spirit arouses the saints
                Then satan gets tough
                And his demons get rough
                As a landscape of darkness he paints.

                They whisper in ears
                And manifest fears
                Your self worth is brought to it's knees
                They love to destroy
                The flowing of joy
                And desecrate all that they see.

                So stand firm in Christ
                And stop being nice
                The victory, is already won                                          
                The power of The Lord                                                                       
                               Is your two edged sword
                From you, they have to run.

Not only freeflowing and easily understood, but true to the core.  We can be encouraged while feeling discouraged because if we were not on the right path, the enemy has no use to bother us!
