Facing Down Hell
by Michael Doyle

Facing down the gates of Hell,
I found a better place to dwell.
My shame was provided healing,
And now I'm blessed with a new feeling.

My heritage from God is in my veins
As I praise His, the holiest of names.
I've finally done one thing clever,
As I kneel before the cross, now and forever.

His is the kingdom in this eternal hour.
I am blessed t know His holy power.
Jesus, our savior, causes Satan to cower.
I am blessed by His eternal power.

Forever, I take part in His story,
Amazed by all that is His glory.
I've put on a blessed attitude,
As I witness this with obedient gratitude.

Rolling thunder displays His universe,
As I lay my pen to humble verse.
My soul sings in my humbled tone,
The Lamb gave all, and I'm no longer alone.

It is finished as He said.
My burdens are lifted, and I have a clear head.
My savior has healed my broken soul,
With His love, He did console.

State clearly within this proclamation,
I offer up the best of my humble adoration.
His is the love, the light, and the truth,
I wish I had known from my youth.

He has risen on that Resurrection Day.
I am blessed to have found His way.
And so with eyes of blessed love,
I share God in all He's given from above.
