I need an edge around me
This time not from mine enemy
I need protection and a line of boundary
Against those who love me
I have come to know
Not only does the evil harm me so
But all too often, those who say they love me
With words and deeds
They sometimes deposit bitter seeds
I need an edge around me
This time not from mine enemy
I need protection and a line of boundary
Against those who love me
A dis-functional culture
Breeding added ill-nature
Robs you of your present
And destroys your future
A fence to help me
Nurture that which is within me
From hostility and strife, set free
‘Tis my earnest plea
Oh Lord, build an edge around me
