Sexual Sins
I am free to do anything,
But unto the cross I will cling;
For not everything is wise,
Onto the Lord within His eyes.
I will not let it gain control,
For it will take over my soul;
Obsession would control my life,
Inducing the toils and strife.
Whenever I hunger and thirst,
The stomach will start to crave first;
But God will be putting an end,
When the mouth has some food to blend.
Flesh is not for sexual sin,
Lustful desires deep within;
For the body is for the Lord,
With being in just one accord.
For your body is part of Christ,
And you are not to be enticed;
By desires of earthly things,
And limited pleasures it brings.
Once united you become one,
And then all others you will shun;
Which includes the body of Christ,
Another body has sufficed.
