Fright Night by Belinda van Rensburg In the deepest, darkest night After I've switched off the light Creatures lurk within my room Planning my demise and doom. They slither, slink and crawl around Making not the slightest sound; Waiting with abated breath To pounce and scare me half to death. My heart is pounding in my chest I'm scared to breathe or move 'round lest The monsters hiding 'neath my bed Decide it's time that they were fed. I am so scared; what should I do? Night after dark night I go through The same emotions; fear and fright As soon as I've turned off my light. I remember someone said (or is it something that I read?) We should never, ever fear For God's Spirit's always near. I'm not alone: He's here with me And scary monsters must all flee; When in Jesus's Name I pray They have to leave and stay away. I say a prayer and sing a song Whilst unseen angels sing along; They've come to guard me as I sleep; To slay all things which crawl and creep. |
