A song about overcoming a temptation by remembering God's forgiveness and love. I don't always win, but He does!
Story behind the song
Warding off the temptation to play video games.
Lyrics
You asked for deliverance,
And then you asked it back.
Lift your eyes to higher things,
And ward off that attack!
Take a walk along the shore,
Of God's unbounded grace.
Stare into the stream of love,
Until you see his face!
Ah, fondest, blindest, weakest,
Ah, I am He thou seekest!
Turn my eyes from emptiness,
To behold your law!
Lift my eyes from foolishness,
To gaze up in awe!
The mountain of your majesty,
The ocean of your truth!
The regions of serenity,
The fountain of your youth!
Ah, fondest, blindest, weakest,
Ah, I am He thou seekest!
Ah, fondest, blindest, weakest,
Ah, I am He thou seekest!
Ah, fondest, blindest, weakest,
Ah, I am He thou seekest!
Ah, fondest, blindest, weakest,
Ah, I am He thou seekest!
