The Battle |
Five days out on an infinite sea, they prayed for calm on an ocean free |
But the surface of the water was indicating some disturbance |
The raft was hurled by an unseen source, two hundred feet, with |
Frightening force |
And a dark mass rising showed to be a giant porpoise |
Rising out of the angry sea, towered the creatures' enemy |
And so the two sea monsters closed for battle |
Crocodile teeth, lizard’s head, bloodshot eye, stained ocean red |
Moving close to their raft’s side, the two men prayed as one and cried |
«Save me, save me, save me, save me» |
The serpents' fight went on for hours, two monsters soaring up like towers |
And driving down to the depths in a single motion |
Suddenly, the serpent’s head, shot out of the water bathed in red |
And the serpentine form lay lifeless on the ocean |
Crocodile teeth, lizard’s head, bloodshot eye stained ocean read |
Battle won, a victor’s pride, the three men thanked the Lord and cried |
«Praise God, praise God, praise God, praise God.» |
Battle won, a victor’s pride, the three men thanked the Lord and cried |
«Praise God, praise God, praise God, praise God.» |
