Oh Lord!


Romans 7:18  New King James Version

18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find.                                                               

 

Oh, Lord!

 

You saved me from the responsibility and tendency to sin

And still, it seems even in my dreams; my purity seems gone

You saved me and set me free, I surely know that deep within

At times I'm still unable to overcome my flesh so I  feel undone.
