ALMIGHTY WARRIOR

Almighty warrior,

Thou art the protector

of Thine own children;

against Thee, evil cannot win.

When widows and orphans

are in danger,

Thou comest to their defense.

Thy love is the Fence,

the Shield, the Barrier

that surrounds the innocent.

Against the wicked, You vent

Your wrath when Thy children

are the target of their rage.

Every evil deed has a wage:

That is the law of cause and effect.

The wicked provide the cause, You oh Lord,

provide the effect.  And the vicious insect

is always crushed beneath Thy foot.

For Thou art the Almighty warrior.

Thank You for protecting the ones

who love and trust in You.

Thou art the Almighty warrior.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I dedicate this one first to my Grandma, and then to every battered woman and every abused child in the world.  May God always be your Almighty Warrior.
