Fallen
I have fallen once again
desires of the flesh have taken hold
and the stench of death lingers
ready to grasp hold one final time
Will I not turn from the temptation
before my final breath
I must not let my eye linger at the sight
of what my flesh desires
It shall lead only to my death
Shall I not turn to he who has withstood the desires of the flesh
Who can withstand the desires of the flesh
but he who stands eternal in the realm of everlasting life
He once stood in the flesh on our behalf
desires of the flesh have taken hold
and the stench of death lingers
ready to grasp hold one final time
Will I not turn from the temptation
before my final breath
I must not let my eye linger at the sight
of what my flesh desires
It shall lead only to my death
Shall I not turn to he who has withstood the desires of the flesh
Who can withstand the desires of the flesh
but he who stands eternal in the realm of everlasting life
He once stood in the flesh on our behalf
