Fright Night

by Belinda van Rensburg

In the deepest, darkest night

After I've switched off the light

Creatures lurk within my room

Planning my demise and doom.

They slither, slink and crawl around

Making not the slightest sound;

Waiting with abated breath

To pounce and scare me half to death.

My heart is pounding in my chest

I'm scared to breathe or move 'round lest

The monsters hiding 'neath my bed

Decide it's time that they were fed.

I am so scared; what should I do?

Night after dark night I go through

The same emotions; fear and fright

As soon as I've turned off my light.

I remember someone said

(or is it something that I read?)

We should never, ever fear

For God's Spirit's always near.

I'm not alone: He's here with me

And scary monsters must all flee;

When in Jesus's Name I pray

They have to leave and stay away.

I say a prayer and sing a song

Whilst unseen angels sing along;

They've come to guard me as I sleep;

To slay all things which crawl and creep
