New Creature in Christ

II Corinthians 5:17

Any man be in Christ, he's a new creature,
A heavenly move in his earthly departure;
Old things are gone as things become new,
Changing directions as our spirits renew;
Do not let yourself become discouraged,
Just let those problems be acknowledged;
Maybe you tried to get rid of the weakness,
Obsessions and jealousies without success;
Inferiorities and sins do not seem to fade,
Maybe your failures for debt not been paid;
It just seems like it's so long and tedious,
When the world today seems so devious;
But, it can be done in Christ in a flash,
For getting rid of all your sinful trash.
All you need to do is simply go pray,
Do not be bashful, just sincerely say;
"Lord, I do not want from this day,
No longer shall I be this sinful way."
He will start helping what you can't do,
It will be an everlasting change in you.
