My heart was tempted
My eyes saw and wanted
My feet went, my hands took
What was not meant to be mine
This human nature
My terrible nature
Is not what I want
Can I overcome it?
You were brutally beaten
And nailed to the cross
Placed in a tomb
Left to rot
But You rose in 3 days,
The gosples remind us,
For the glory of the King
And the saving of our souls
My heart breaks
And tears fall
I raise my hands
As I fall to the floor
Surrounded by things of this world
But I’m not of this world anymore
Now that You dwell in this temple,
I know I can overcome
So I rise, made new by the One
Who died and rose
For the glory of the King
And the saving of our souls
