The evil one pressured me,
Viciously trying to sack me
For an eternal loss,
And as a young quarterback,
In fear I rashly forced my passes,
Resulting in many interceptions;
But my Coach guided me,
Gently and encouragingly,
And He taught me well,
Advising me to play it cool,
To try and be more flexible,
Especially under pressure;
And so, I gradually matured,
And when Temptation and Fear
Pursued and tried to tackle me,
I calmly and courageously
Took evasive action,
I left my comfort zone —
The comfort of the pocket —
And I became a scrambler,
A fearless, patient scrambler,
Who trusted the offensive line
Of Divine Providence,
And this created opportunities,
Many little opportunities to love,
And so with great persistence,
And with great patience,
And with long consistent drives,
Through the wondrous grace of God,
This resulted in touchdowns,
And the ultimate victory,
In the Super Bowl of Life.
