Baptized

They weren’t lying when they said that You can heal Your children
Looking back on the man I used to be I sometimes want to turn away before the memories invade my mind again
Since the day I was covered in your love came up a new man
Delivered from this world and those that dwell in it
You didn’t put me here to stress off of what others say to me
Nor did You put me here to present anything but the truth
Be a vessel for You
They ask me where my inspiration comes from
I put upwards
Lines rained down
 
Blessed indeed
 
I wear my armor, protecting me from the diabolical beings that inhabit my space
Friends are starting to look more and more like foes
Reaper on the lookout for wayward souls
So I stay strong in my faith
 
The blood covers me
Satan will not defeat me
You are with me and victory is mine

Putting together the dramatic long lines and the short exclamations work well in this one. Good rhythmic structure here.
