How shall we who died to sin
Continue to live in its stench'
How can we whose bodies live
Still embrace this rotting flesh'

Buried with Him into death
And resurrected into His life
Now that we have been set free
Sin no longer will command

I will not be mastered by persuasions of this world
I will not be mastered by inclinations of the flesh
I will not be mastered by these things that will drag me down
I will not be mastered by these things that emerge from hell

Food for the stomach, and stomach for the food
Yet our God of power will destroy them both


So the war wages between the Spirit and flesh
A battle between this life and death
