I have a disease more deadly than any knife.
It has filled me with demons, anguish and strife.
They call it addiction; it took over my life.
My mind, body and soul were in constant pain.
Depression consumed me like cold winter rain.
On the t-shirt of society, I was considered a stain.
Everything I worked for slipped down the drain.
So I began to pray, and was reminded what’s to gain.
My unclear thoughts were all instantly slain.
My depression and fear both began to wane.
The Holy Spirit reminded me of all I’m worth
Because, from a virgin, came my Savior, a birth.
He was perfection, never sinned on this earth.
He was mocked with a crown of thorns, furthermore.
When His soul left His body, the temple curtains tore,
As the ground beneath began to rumble and roar.
I remembered how I’m the one Jesus died for!
I knew not what God had for me in store.
Then, out of my body, my demons did pour,
And I have learned, and now know for sure,
For my disease, Jesus is the only cure!
Thank God for my Savior and His heart so pure!
