On Encompassing Angels seen around me
Each of four angels sent from the Lord,
arm raised with a flaming sword
To the sky pointing,
like landing lights for the anointing.
The swords alight with fiery Spirit,
all of Satan's legions hear it -
blinding, roaring, searing flame
at command of Jesus' name.
The four of them standing square
several feet into the air,
facing outward they surround
and embolden me to stand my ground.
North, South, East and West,
they offer me secluded rest.
Set apart and well-protected,
no more distracted, misdirected.
With every offering of praise,
all four angels' swords they raise.
From now on, you are inspired,
head up, eyes outward, and more desired.
