We are debtors not to the flesh,
According to the flesh to live;
For keeping our spirit fresh,
Because of God who will forgive.
Living by the flesh you will die,
But by the Spirit you will live;
Putting to death the flesh deny,
Everything that God will give.
Those that are led by the Spirit,
Truly all are the sons of God;
And promised the will inherit,
After being cleansed from where flawed.
Not a spirit of slavery,
Making you fall back into fear;
But a Spirit of savory,
And knowing the Father is near.
The Spirit Himself bears witness,
Our spirit as His child;
Ensuring spiritual fitness,
And avoid in being wild.
If children then also as heirs,
Being fellow co-heirs with Christ;
The suffrage that each of us shares,
Glorified for being enticed.
