Abstain Lyrics

Ain't no fellowship with women from the other side

When there's darkness in my lamp it's hard to see the light

Would you do it if you knew that it would cost your life

Would you do it if you knew that you would surely die

Take an arrow to the liver or the murder of a man

Is being led astray worth all the women in the land

Her betrayal in the night took all the strength up out his hand

It was the woman as much as it was the man

I've been thinking I need saving from myself now

I've been fighting like a boxer but feel knocked out

I know You hear me, please replace the evil thoughts now

I lost my life and now I'm carrying my cross now

I find it sad that you can sin through a screen

I find it sad that you can sin in a dream

Wretched man that I am, I think I know what he means

Why join myself to harlots if the Spirit's in me

If this body was my own, my sin I'd do it

If the living God was dead, my sin I'd choose it

The saints of old would say to stand up and refuse it

All this light up in me I should probably use it

Take an arrow to the liver or the murder of a man

Is being led astray worth all the women in the land

Her betrayal in the night took all the strength up out his hand

It was the woman as much as it was the man

I've been thinking I need saving from myself now

I've been fighting like a boxer but feel knocked out

I know You hear me, please replace the evil thoughts now

I lost my life and now I'm carrying my cross now

I was dead but now alive

I'm alive and had to die

The Son He came from heaven

It's all praise to Jesus Christ

If He Himself was tempted I'll endure it with a smile

I know that He will aid through light affliction for a while

So I'm grabbing all this armor

I'm picking up this sword

I hold this shield of faith

And run to win the great reward

I mount up with wings like eagles

I ain't ever losing strength

I was crucified with Christ

I gave it all not just a tenth

So I'm counting it all loss

Spread the message of the cross

Power of God to all those who believe

But foolishness to the lost

Temple of the Holy Spirit

Holy living is the cost

Power, love, and a sound mind

To and fro, I am not tossed

Oh Lord, my God, You saved me

And I've been thinking lately

From back when I was little

My mind always been crazy

Lord sanctify me daily

Cus David lost his baby

Lord help me to abstain

Cus without You I act like Amnon

Take an arrow to the liver or the murder of a man

Is being led astray worth all the women in the land

Her betrayal in the night took all the strength up out his hand

It was the woman as much as it was the man

I've been thinking I need saving from myself now

I've been fighting like a boxer but feel knocked out

I know You hear me, please replace the evil thoughts now

I lost my life and now I'm carrying my cross now
