“Deliver Us From Evil”
Tom Dooley wrote along this line,
Of evil side of warfare – fine
For those at home not facing foe
On battlefields where soldiers go.There’s evil in, and evil out;
There’s evil here, and ’round about
Us in the universe these days,
Where buying time with shortcut pays.We’re in a state of full denial,
For evil swamps us – all the while,
This pretense we keep up, so sane
Is state where we seem “much the same”.We crossed the “origin” today
Of angle diagram, which says
To me that peace at any price
Will not conceal the not-so-nice.“Sit back, relax, there Stuie-babe,
In bubble-mobile you have stayed;
So as the landing-strip draws near
The context-atmosphere will clear.“And it’s a shocker for us all –
Folks trapped within old satan’s thrall
Bewildered as the Far Side asked:
‘Can they do that?’ – Their die is cast.“For actions speak quite clear to each
In bubble-mobile, on the beach,
Out on the ‘rolling tide’ of song
They sang on Sunday – you belong –“In situations Christ has fixed
For you, where people have been blixed
By satan’s antics through his folks
The Exorcist, no more some joke.“‘Deliver us’ has been their prayer
And you’re God’s answer – going there
Can be a bit uncomfortable,
But them’s the breaks – they’ve had their fill –“So wish deliverance, ‘and soon’,
‘Like how ’bout coming here ’fore noon!’”
I'm sensing Lord there’s evil there
Inside stone walls (“so be prepared!”)“So ’bide in Me, and hang on tight –
It’s sometimes rough to be the light
In their dark worlds – it was with you,
As folks drew near, Christ’s work to do.“It’s Jubilee that names the task –
‘Ditch pushing’ of the dream from past;
What this entails is in Sun Tzu
(Untwisted) – guide for you to use.”Okay, O Holy Spirit, thanks
For guiding word, as this plane banks,
And landing path of final leg
Gets lined up now – on this first “raid”.Okay Holy Spirit thanks for this.
