THESE THOUGHTS
These thoughts, these lusts, these fantasies
a hold upon my mind, they seize.
With my flesh, my heart disagrees,
but my mind wanders, anyway.
And, my Savior, I betray.
I should never have let it in,
now I find I’m in bondage to this sin.
These thoughts, these lusts, these fantasies
a hold upon my mind, they seize.
Lord, deliver me from the decisions
I have mistakenly made, from my sins.
Oh, how I have forfeited many wins.
These thoughts, these lusts, these fantasies
a hold upon my mind, they seize.
Lord, deliver me from the decisions
I have mistakenly made, from my sins.
Why can’t I think on whatever things
are pure, are true, are holy—these things.
Instead I tie myself up with the strings,
the ropes, and chains of sin
and it leads only to destruction.
Why can’t I think on whatever things
are pure, are true, are holy—these things.
