The Lie

 The Lie

They tell me that I'm crazy
That none of this is real
They say my mind betrayed me
They say it always will

There is no hope in my case
My sanity is lost
They should lock me in a safe place
Let the state absorb the cost

Or better yet, just take my life
Just kill myself and end it
Use a gun, a rope, a train, a knife
Don't say goodbye, just do it

The Truth

The truth is I serve a Holy God
And this makes the devil angry
I am ransomed, loved and called
So Satan seeks to destroy me

He wants to call the truth a lie
He taunts me with deceit
He promises torment until I die
Until he dances at my defeat

But I refuse to be decieved
By resisting I grow stronger
I'll meditate on truths that I've received
By the Spirit, I'll endure longer

The truth is stronger than the lie
Christ's light can drown out darkness
Satan may tempt me to give up and die
But my God and I will fight this
