I flew in your circle to find you
Pined away hours and gasped
I struggled as a mine eyed canary
Held my breath, layed low, by an asp
–
No one could see I was crying
Still quiet was I, unbeknownst
To the one I thought n’er would blindside me
As I hid and felt all alone
–
Yet the pressure drew me closer toward heaven
God’s word, my oxygen tent
I let go and let Jesus protect me
From the enemies sting that was sent
–
The sting of the vipers sore venom
Was dead in it’s own rebuke
In the still, open door, a breath of fresh air
A place of warm, graceful repute
–
Looking for you in the circle
The choice is yours, yours alone
Releasing the sting in the moment
Almighty God reigns on the throne
–
The Spirit of life, love, forgiveness,
Breathes new life, the stings antidote
Hallelujah, it’s God’s Holy Spirit
Who helps us and teaches His own
–
Releasing the sting
