as i slept
in the dark of night
startled awake
with an awful fright
i looked around
but couldn't see
what it was
that had frightened me
a calming presence
i now felt
the ice in my veins
would soon thaw and melt
i heard Him say
Child of Mine be not afraid
no need to fight in your sleep
the battles won, the enemy slayed
My Angels here
will protect you
from enemies sent trying
their best to harm anew
sleep now Child of Mine
the demons gone
trust in Me
you'll be fine
