I Called Out Your Name Poem by louis rams

You came to me when I called out your name
To take away my troubles and pain
There are many things in life that I can do
And when I can't, I turn it over to you.

You give me strength when I am weak
You are the only one that I seek.
My destiny has already been laid out by you
And you know what I'll be going through.

We all must have hard times and crosses to bare
And with others our problems we'll share
Then the devil comes to my door, trying
To tempt me to sin once more
If I allow him to get his way, then in sin I will stay.

But I am in the hands of my Lord and he has
Opened many a door.
He has taken me to where I have to be
And set my heart and soul free.

Devil go back home to your fires and brimstone!

I called out your name and I feel your might
Cause you are with me day and night.
