I cannot do everything,
If it is not allow by the law;
For the police would have to bring,
To a jail cell where I would fall.
But I will not allow anything,
To take over and gain control;
Never letting any sin cling,
Down deep within my inner soul.
Food is to nourish the stomach,
And the stomach is for the food;
But some bad food can run amuck,
And cause you a change in your mood.
God can put an end to all of them,
Just like with the air that you breathe;
As your life that He would condemn,
To someone who does not believe,
Bodies are not for sinful acts,
Which includes a sexual sin;
But these are the actual facts,
Bodies are for the Lord within.
If you make love to a harlot,
Then you and her would become one;
No room for Christ as your pilot,
No way to unite with the Son.
Stay away from sexual sin,
Do not commit fornication;
You will be corrupted within,
Expect eternal damnation.
For your body is a temple,
Belongs to the Holy Spirit;
And if you follow the Gospel,
Controls what you will inherit.
