Are we to live as slaves to sin?
Or are we to stand up and fight like men?
To revolt against evil's hold
To be the one who breaks the mould
Generations of lust and greed
Are only symptoms of our greater need
For we fill our lives with worthless things
To fill that void instead of seeking the King
Turning our backs to love itself
Often times putting Jesus on the shelf
To pick him up when we so desire
We turn to him only when we wish to feel the fire
When we are cold and feel alone
We often forget the grace that we are shown
Satan sees opportunity and launches his attacks
He gives us false glimpses of what we truly lack
But why give in and lose this battle
Instead take heart and jump in the saddle
For every moment of every day
We can choose to live or decay
Because love was given on that cross
We can live eternally with our great boss
Are we to live as slaves to sin?
Or are we to stand up and fight like men?
