THE DEVIL, ME AND JESUSA Poem by DONALD EISSLER( still trying to win my soul back from the devil) third of four parts
I need to find the Devil, I know he somewhere near. Though my hands are shaking Of him I do not fear. . I now have something with me Which I did not have before. It’s my faith in Lord Jesus And it has been restored. . I had played with the devil In a game I could not win. I played cards with devil And I knew it was a sin. . “Is it him your looking for “ Voice came from the bowls of earth. Ground then seemed to open up As like it was giving birth. . The heat was so stifling Could not catch my breath, My chest I felt on fire Thought I was close to death. . Then suddenly before me An evil figure did appear. Said “I’m the devils messenger, Want to make this very clear. “
“Devil sent me to inform you, Another card game he will play. But the anti will be even more Than it was that other day." . "If you anti up your life He will anti up you soul. But if you lose the hand Your life he will control " . “I have no life without my soul” To the messenger I replied. “Let that devil deal the cards, I have something Holy on my side." . The messenger he disappeared Through a crevice near Left not with a smile But with that evil sneer . So now I sit here waiting To make my final stand When the devil me and Jesus Will play our final hand . tk © 2012 DONALD EISSLER |
