Should we sin because of our soul,
Of the laws are not in control;
Since we do have our savior,
And God looks on us with favor.
If you give yourself as a slave,
Then you must fulfill till the grave;
For you must obey that master,
Or will be heading for disaster.
Either your master filled with sin,
Or of obedience within;
If it is sin that leads to death;
Well beyond taking your last breath.
God has given His approval,
And flaws ordered for removal;
When obedience has control,
With the righteousness of your soul.
You were a slave to sinful ways,
Having to obey all your days;
But I thank God that you have now,
Changing your ways and the knowhow.
So I speak to you in a way,
For the weakness we have today;
How easy to be a creature,
Because of your corrupt nature.
What did you gain doing those things,
Just the little pleasure that it brings;
And now you are feeling ashamed,
Of the things you had once proclaimed.
Death is our payment for sin,
From the rot and decay within;
Everlasting life that God will give,
So you can eternally live.
