Protect this House


Many things knock on the door of my mind

I answer them with one goal

To protect this House

 

Random trains of thought knock on my door

I capture them thinking only about

Protecting this House

 

Thoughts of the lord knock on my door

I joyously allow them in continuing to think on

Protecting this House

 

Thoughts of conduct that could scar my name knock on my door

With the help of the thoughts of the Lord I banish them saying I must

Protect this House

 

A fight of light and dark knocks on my door

I aid the light by

Protecting this House

 

Together we place armor on the people in this place

As we prepare to run this race chanting

Protect this House

 

The battle in my head

Will demonstrate my will to

 Protect this House
