where demons dwell – v3

may demons have nowhere to hide
no heart to make a purchase
make the soil be held
in the loving arms of God

shine your light, brighter,
changing the shade, the color,
the path of the journey
the trajectory, the motion

bring your light, stronger,
into this darkness, this evil
into these shadow lands
where demons dwell

tearing them from the fabric
rip them from the ground
root them out roughly
no rest for them

no place for hiding, silent,
buried within hearts
tear them out fully
before they are torn apart

Habakkuk 3:17-19 (NIV)
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Habakkuk+3%3A17-19&version=NIV
17 Though the fig tree does not bud
    and there are no grapes on the vines,
though the olive crop fails
    and the fields produce no food,
though there are no sheep in the pen
    and no cattle in the stalls,
18 yet I will rejoice in the Lord,
    I will be joyful in God my Savior.
19 The Sovereign Lord is my strength;
    he makes my feet like the feet of a deer,
    he enables me to tread on the heights.”

Habakkuk 3:17-19 (rewritten by me, one version)
17 Though the mills may be shuttered
and the forests are empty,
though the fields do not provide
their bounty, their harvest,
though the young are departing
for greener pastures,
18 yet I rejoice in my God
I will be joyful in Christ my Savior.
19 The Creator of the universe is my rock
I am like the deer, its hooves
steady on the Mountain.
