Christian Living
Jesus is a gentleman, He stands at the door and knocks
Waiting patiently for me to call on Him when I'm tempted to smoke rocks
His word says that in my weakness is when He is most strong
He's been right there with me, quietly guiding me along
I know I need to love the Lord with all my heart and all my mind
For when these things I am doing, His peace I, at last, will find
I need to make a commitment to resist all temptations all the time
Instead of eagerly seeking ways to indulge these sinful thoughts of mine
But when I am tempted, it isn't God who's leading me astray
It is the evil desires within me tugging each and every way
So now that I'm aware I must carefully be on guard
Combatting anything and everything enticing my poor heart
So in His word I search to find the peace within
To fight my battle effectively -- this battle against sin.
