Inspired by Sister Etheldreda
In a recent post, Sister Mary used the statement "Awash in Satan's Waterfall" while encouraging a poster to consider that young girls should be married off as soon as they develop b-r-e-a-s-t-s. Something moved in my spirit when I saw those words, and while at present it is just a poem, I have asked the Lord to give me the musicalness of it so it will be a song. So, I present to you now what Jesus (through Mary) inspired:
Awash (In Satan's Waterfall)
I felt so wet, my hair was dripping
Through wind and rain, my hope did fall
But through the light that Jesus brought me
I found I was awash in satan's waterfall.
CHORUS:
I was awash in dirty water
The water had no light at all
It could not cleanse, nor quench the thirsty
Since I was awash in satan's waterfall
I cried out, "Jesus! please come and dry me!"
He said He would, but first things first:
I had to claim Him as Lord and Savior
Then He would send His own cloudburst.
I said, "O Savior! I am a sinner!
I am not worthy of all Your pain!"
Then in His Mercy, I felt the moisture
When Jesus sent His cleansing, purifying rain.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Christ's cloudburst cleansed me
No longer smelly, With joy bells ringing, I could stand tall
Knowing my Jesus bleached me completely,
No longer trapped in satan's waterfall.
Friend, are you suffering?
Are you awash in the perils found in satans waterfall?
Just pray to Jesus, He'll take your burden
He'll answer just as soon as on your knees you fall.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
