Temptation


Lord I need your help
When daily I am faced
With temptation to do what’s wrong
Lord I need your loving grace

I feel so very desperate
And I try to do my best
Why can’t I be stronger, Lord?
And rise above the flesh

All the power that I need
Your Holy Spirit provides
I need to keep my trust in you
And my flesh I must deny

He knows just how we feel
When temptation comes to us
And provides a way of escape
When we have had enough

We must trust to Him each day
That He’ll be with us all
So we may bear up under it
And be stronger in the Lord
