In my every view, there's battle on the horizon. Sometimes I want to flee, an' other times, join the other side, simply 'cause it's easier. May I be ever steadfast in you O' Lord! Renew me and purge my bitter pride. Lead me to a passive place where - solace, comes to those who seek peace, so you might truly reign in Your full and awesome glory!
