What have I done? Why have I sinned? I’ve played with the devil & let him win.
I tangle into darkness by the seduction of the lies, gifts of this world instead of your eternal prize
I am not worthy, something we both know, but you’ll love me anyway & fight for my soul.
It’s ignorant bliss to ignore spiritual warfare.
Your angels fight tirelessly to win me back
but the closer we are drawn to the light of your glory
evermore profound are these shadows of black
he uses my past to ignite my pride
& I tell myself I’ve gone too far to be forgiven
but who am I to ever make that judgement?
My anguish becomes the flame by which I am driven
it is the thorn in my side to remind me of my flesh
which draws me back to kneel before the cross
makes me work each day-- out of love for you
for through the resurrection all sin is lost
