I speak in a human way,
To help you to understand;
That temptation made you stray,
As you walk in sinking sand.
The weakness of your nature,
That has corrupted your heart;
Preventing the new creature,
Allowing you to impart.
Clearly you have once offered,
Of your body as a slave;
As your ears have blocked the Word,
While it keeps digging your grave.
Sexual perversion keeps,
Disobedience in mind;
Erotic dreams as one sleeps,
Makes you spiritually blind.
So you live a carnal life,
And to Satan you obey;
For he fills you up with strife,
As you continue to stray.
For what do you really gain,
By doing those carnal things;
Does it seem to help your brain,
From the pleasure that it brings.
You should be feeling ashamed,
Because it ends up in death;
Of all the victims it claimed,
Choking them till their last breath.
Offer your body to God,
As a slave to sacrifice;
Giving Him honor and laud,
That holy lives can entice.
I am a work in progress,
Of His construction project;
For all of me to possess,
Being one of the elect.
