Temptation

After a long day of working hard I'm physically drained, I'm so tired I don't feel like doing what I could Yet I try to stay righteous as I should All these temptations keep pestering me So much pleasure to bring relief I know I should not give in to them Still I find myself slipping away from Him But I am not alone Cause I'm not the only one No temptation has seized me That isn't uncommon to everybody We don't have to sympathize Because we already empathize And God is so faithful He's such an amazing friend He does not let us be tempted Beyond what we can bear It shows how much He is faithful It shows how much He cares Yes He provides a way out So we can now stand tall We don't have to be afraid There is a way to escape We have ourselves a community People there in times of need Thank You for Your sacrifice For tearing down the veil We can come before the Lord So we can never fail

Being the Best

Who remembers those in second place, Those who came up short running the race, Who couldn't beat one other person, Who can never say that they have won? We live our lives like these same people We're seen as stupid, weak, and feeble Once we can say that we had it all Only to stumble, stagger, and fall We became small when we once were big To eat we have to first feed the pigs We have become dead, lost, and strangers But our Father's slaves have it better When He provides we are family Provide for myself it's all bout me I hide behind my excuses and lies Forgetting bout He, for us, who died I'm tired, I'm weary I realize my sins I am now self-aware Celebration begins Celebration time Because we're the best Celebration time We're better than the rest The Father has shown unconditional love Even though we were least deserving of Cast aside the Laws, throw away your fears Become unhindered, celebration is here We are called to give generously...
