Escape Temptations

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

Overwhelmed, on our own
We feel helpless, and lost
So set our mind, believe God’s Word
There is victory, through the cross.

Well, I don’t mind a dog
Be it Collie or Beagle
But I’m sad for this driver
Who prefers dogs to people.

Learn from Adam, our wrongs
We must own, and not hide
Nor blame others, but confess
And repent…. in Christ abide.

Keep God’s Word, in our heart
Cry out to God, and resist
Resolve, I will obey
The Holy Spirit, will assist.

God calls us to love
Have a heart that is pure
Not blemished, nor selfish
Repentant, in Him secure.

Recall, God has commanded
We be strong, of good courage
Are not afraid, nor dismayed
Nor are we discouraged.

LORD, may I listen
You alone, are The Way
Lest I stumble in pride
Hear not, what You say.

Too often, each day
It’s all about me
My feelings and thoughts
Too self-centered, I see.

For the God who solved sin
Thro’ sending His Son
Can certainly solve
His children’s problems.
