Breathe into me, LORD Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

His Earthen Vessels

We’re challenged, on every side
Not crushed, tho’ hard-pressed
But thro’ Jesus, not despairing
Our Great Potter, knows best.

For when tempted, God provides
A way out, an escape
That we’re able, to endure
So let us learn, avoid mistakes.

But in place of God’s lordship
Satan swiftly deceived
Appealed to their senses
Denied truths, God revealed.

Stay far from temptations
Not seeking our pleasure
Instead, cleaving closer
To Christ, our true treasure.

So younger or older
Both need to repent
Whether passion or pride
Instead, live as Father meant.

So, we likewise must repent
Of rebelling, and sleeping
We should rather, seek God
Not self-serving, but reaping.

As a soul, with a body
Ignore not your spirit
Jesus offers new life
Will you ask Him, come fill it?

Control and compel me
Conform me to Christ
Consume all the dross
His blood has sufficed.

Feel desperate within
Transform me, O Lord
Am needing great change
May grace be outpoured.

So dear saint, do not focus
On outer flaws, your external
Know God searches hearts
‘Tis our soul, that’s eternal.
