The Damaged Mind

The Damaged Mind

When someone thinks of a blade, a pill or needle
To end their life because of mental struggle
To allow their thoughts to be led astray
Because of wrong acts done today

To give place to the Devil unaware
Because the world gave you a scare
He pulls the strings of the uncontrolled mind
Replacing good thoughts with those that are unkind

He is the one who has power over death
He is the one that brings the last breath
But if you choose to take a stand
Refuse to fall into his misleading hand

Change the direction your mind is led
By casting your cares to God when you lay in your bed
He is the one who can rescue your life
Because of His Son, he defeated mental strife

Those oppressed, need never be depressed
They need never turn to a blade, pill or needle being stressed
God is our refuge and strength in times of trouble
He lifts the oppressed and sets them free

Helping them in their struggles to be free
He laid every struggle every pain on His Son to give us victory
So that we could mentally believe we have won
When we confess him Lord, yes Gods only begotten Son

Believing in our hearts mind God raised him from the dead
We go from being dead in trespasses and sins to living instead
A new life begins as Gods spirit comes inside
As we put on His Word, we no longer need to hide

So, take no blade, pill, or needle to end your life
When you are discouraged and full of worldly strife
Turn to God, the one who saved you by His Son
Yes, life with strength, knowing you have won.
