I’m trying

Been crying

Out to You

Make me new

As I draw near

I soon disappear

Back to my own ways

Lord set my heart ablaze

This is not me

Lord you set me free

Subdue this flesh controlling me

Raise me up to follow Thee!

Jesus my desire is You

I can not do this on my own

Jesus I want to

Live for You and You alone

My flesh is screaming

The devil’s scheming

Keep me from the wicked one

Without you I’m undone

This is not meLord you set me free

Subdue this flesh controlling me

Raise me up to follow Thee!

The Cross before me

The world behind me

Devil stay away from me

In Jesus name you have to flee

Jesus my desire is You

I can not do this on my own

Jesus I want to

Live for You and You alone

I want to live for You alone

I can not do this on my own

Subdue this flesh controlling me

Raise me up to follow Thee!

My hearts desire is to follow Thee!

Raise me up to follow Thee!

Tough out there ain't it, I like that song/poem. Pesky old man evil/satan/devil doesn't waste his time on unbelievers, he's already got them. The only ones he's got to deceive are the ones who are trying to live for the lord. Wish people could see it as pain as I do. Maybe they do, they just don't want to waste time on those who don't.
