Catch: Ready To Die

Ever since Christ came in
Nothing’s been the same
God says I’m free
But I’m still in chains
Bounded by weakness
In need of change
Yes me!
I need of change
Spiritual awakening
Like fine décor
I need to be rearranged
Life should be aligned with the Great Mathematician calculations
Because death to self isn’t one of my realizations
Major operation
Too many complications
Keep on sinning like Christ and I don’t have relations

It’s like I’m Peter
Spirit is willing, my flesh is weak
But that’s about to change
Every second, every minute, every hour, every week
I’m ready to die
Put to death this old flesh of mine
The evil desires
Disguised as pretty attire
But all it does is give me the flat line
Christ gives life!
And I need that in the nick of time

If I follow flesh, who’s gonna see the King on the throne?
Great Redeemer, God and God alone?
Creator of the world
Who got thorns in His head
That I could be saved by the bloodshed?
His body bled
For me
Time to worship with my life
Sin + my life = no prosperity
That He granted when He died on the plus sign
Adding to my life like it’s going out of style!

Hey, sin!
It’s time to go! Bye-bye
Putting my thoughts under Christ’s subjection
Eyes toward heaven
No condemnation
Guarding my heart by the Lord’s Word
Live the life Christ wants
Keep it close to my heart
Yeah, that’s my sword
Letting go of me
Faith is in the King
I can’t do it alone!
But He controls everything

Opening new doors
New opportunities within my grasp
I will catch them
Prayer is key
I will follow the blueprints God has left for me
Time to do what’s right
Both day and night
Flesh goes to flight
Replaced by godliness
Let folks see His light
