Every Thought Captive Lyrics

When the wrong thing enters your head, tries to lead you astray

Then it's time to decide to give in, or you choose to obey

There's a war going on in your mind, gotta fight don't be crossing the line

Every morning the mercies are new, but the battle gets old

Gotta keep on protecting your heart don't ya let it get cold

There are lies so, despite what you've heard, don't forget what it says in the Word

Takin' every thought captive to obedience,

One side or the other, you just can't ride the fence

Takin' every thought captive, takin' every thought captive

To obedience

Don't forget, it's a fact that the fight's, not against flesh and blood

And the foe won't stop the attack, coming in like a flood

Keep in mind what is righteous and true, deep inside you still know what to do

Takin' every thought captive to obedience,

One side or the other, you just can't ride the fence

Takin' every thought captive, takin' every thought captive

To obedience

In your heart you've got to believe in the promise

He will fight by your side, never leave you nor forsake

Just remember that to receive what is promised

Everything you must obey

Takin' every thought captive to obedience,

One side or the other, you just can't ride the fence

Takin' every thought captive, takin' every thought captive

Takin' every thought captive, takin' every thought captive

To obedience
