You are my remnant



You are my remnant
Built one stone at a time.
You are rock solid.
Made from my mortar.
The enemy cannot destruct.

Open your eyes.
Watch what I will reveal.
Serpents will strike.
Pushing their fear.
Rumors of war.

Speak my truth.
Conspiracy no more.
I see your strength.
You will prevail.
Listen to me.
I have set you free.

The enemy will fall.
Watch them tuck tail.
Scour like dogs.

Stand in the stillness.
I am your protection.
I am the eye of the storm.
