Ghost of Heaven

Beside the gates they say is found
A ghost of fright and pain.
Crying out to all who pass
The torments of its brain.
Spewing forth and fire breathed
Twisted shouts and lies.
Entwining each brief strain
Of thought, of walkers passing by.
Twisted up, gnarled, lame, it lashes at the men
Making up deceitful points,
And planting them within.
Seeding doubts of faith and love,
Asking but a few.
What worries have you there my friend
Come, you know it's true.
The thoughts they then begin
To grow, the worries bubble through.
Doubt it has engulfed our mind,
No peace or comfort true..

If man alone were left to fight
This cruel demented foe.
The world would sink in deep despair
No love would ever grow.
But at the deepest darkest hour,
When no one seems to care.
Jesus holds a feast for those,
Who cry to Him in fear.
Come, remove these earthly doubts
Hold your head up high.
Give them all to Him, who loves,
Who reaches from the sky.
Break the chains of evil's doubt,
Leave it at my feet.
Put aside your worldly thoughts,
Be with me complete.
The ghost of heaven na're can touch
With God near and beside.
Faith will hold you from above,
And carry through the time.
