***
I would to like warn of an impending war
A battle bigger than all the wars of the world
A continuous war that never ends
Never meant to end unless the ground diminishes
The war of the flesh and the spirit
*****
See a man walk by
Know you are looking at a battlefield
You may not see it on sight but within he fights
At times the flesh wins
The Spirit gives way for the desires of the body
*****
This war sure must continue
And a Christian must learn to fight the flesh
All arsenals must gather to fight ones own body
For though the victory of the flesh may be enticing
Her fate is detrimental with an only fading glory
*****
But praise be to God
Who has given us the power to overcome
On that Calvary hill, authority over flesh we gained
By the Spirit of God we reign over the flesh
And we keep fighting this body, till the Lord returns.
