to the flesh, the bad world, and all things sinful

leave me alone.
detach from my heart.
unyoke yourself from my soul.

you're tied to my flesh,
following me around like a dog on a leash.
barking at me, you never rest.

come out of my mind.
you're filling it up like fantasy,
pushing away everything good inside.

release me!
stop engulfing me!
be gone from me!

do you not know who i am?
i am a child of God brought to eternal life,
set free and renewed by His Word in my mind.

how dare you defy my authority in Christ?!
in Jesus' name i command you to leave me!
God's Spirit alone reigns in mine!!

have you no shame?
attacking one who bears Christ's name!?
you almost drove me insane.

but i am no longer made weary by you.
Christ died to deliver me from you.
you were already trampled under his foot.

my dear iniquity,
forbidden as u were, i relished u.
i eagerly awaited the sin you promised me.

but having accepted Christ,
the Holy Spirit guides mine.
the sin u brought out from my flesh has lost in it's battle to control my life.

when He died, the battle was already won.
sweet as u may be, always barking at me,
i am loosed and u are bound.

you are just a toothless dog.
i laugh at you heartily because i live on freely,
and you leave me.
