this town brings out

the worst in me

affects my sensitivity

no mercy in

a stranger´s eyes

they´re clouded by

polluted skies

this town is quite

a risky place

the girls make it

a frisky space

i am preserved

because of grace

i flourish as

i seek God´s face

encouraged by

God´s faithful love

i can endure

and rise above

for God brings out

the best in me:

His love throughout

eternity
