lutheranhymnsWhat is the evil that lurks within and without?
This sounds like a great fantasy trope, but no details are given.
What's the deal with the last verse?
Just a rephrasing of the first verse: the first line is a direct echo, but the second line twists it around to express faith in God.
What about the rhyme scheme?
Own/home in verses 1 and 5 is kind of meh (although there actually is an internal rhyme of own/alone that's not the emphasis!) But it's better than come/dawn from verse 3.
