The tempter

When that evil serpent came to tempt me
Using all his unearthly wiles... 
He slid in beside me and whispered
Awful things into my ears as he smiled
"You are not worth your family's tears"
"You are fallen too far to be redeemed"
All these words he whispered unto me
As he tried to bring me even lower
So it seemed...
Only for a moment I thought about it...
Then as I prayed to my Lord in heaven
My strength it was renewed!
"No I will not listen"
"Get thee behind me Satan...
I will not hear your foul words!"
The battle raged on and on
He tried to enter in again and again
But my heart and mind were uplifted
My faith in Jesus resurrected
He brought me through unscathed
