Evil will not win – v2

Evil will not prevail,
Evil will not win;
God is here with us,
helping us to heal.

Grieving will come,
it must take its course;
but may God guard our hearts,
to wall off our thoughts.

May we center in Him,
on the grace of our living God;
not letting the world enter in
keeping us safe from all harm.
