When this world in which my body lives
Attempts to take hold, drag me down
At times I take on the battle myself
Then in despair almost drown
Old habits are like deep valleys
Dark and lonely when trouble is in the way
Praise God, focus on the cross brings clarity
This I know when I begin to pray
For I have a risen Savior
Who took on all of sins stains
And in that peace only He can give
In everything the joy remains.
