Cistern
by mike bullock

In my cistern, there I lay
Living water drained away
Open to the devils realm
God no longer at my helm
What a change in such a flash
Covered in a nasty rash
Could I ever hope to be
Back to where I was with He.

Learned a lot in that short space
As I sank into disgrace
Like a drug it pleased my mind
Showed the state of humankind
Thankfully I overcame
Called upon His holy name
Now I'm back in His safe arms
Oblivious to worldly charms.
