"Slaves"

by Adam's Road
Album: It's So Simple

I was born into slavery (Psalm 51:5)
Practiced my sin (John 8:34)
It overcame me (Rom. 12:21)
I followed my passions (Eph. 2:3)
I was dead in my sins (Eph. 2:1)
I was a blasphemer, God's opponent
But I received mercy, I was ignorant
Till grace from the Lord overflowed (1 Tim. 1:13-14)

I'm a slave of righteousness (Rom. 6:18)
What gain would I possess
If I lose my soul but gain the world' (Mark 8:36)
I'm a slave

Within me's a treasure I'm a jar of clay (2 Cor. 4:7)
Set free from sin (Luke 4:18)
I'm a willing slave (Rom. 6:18)
Of righteousness and its end
Is eternal life (Rom. 6:22)
It's not I who live
I'm crucified with Christ (Gal. 2:20)
I'm a bondservant (1 Cor. 7:22)
Now I live by faith in Him (Gal. 2:20)

I'm a slave of righteousness (Rom. 6:18)
What gain would I possess
If I lose my soul but gain the world' (Mark 8:36)

Are you a slave of your religion'
Or of your sin'
Where the Spirit of the Lord is
There is freedom (2 Cor. 3:17)

'Cause Jesus has freed us
Released the captives
Emptied the prison (Luke 4:18)

I'm a slave of righteousness (Rom. 6:18)
What gain would I possess
If I lose my soul but gain the world' (Mark 8:36)

A willing slave of Christ Jesus
What treasure now I possess
I have lost my life
To follow Christ (Mark 8:34-35)
I'm a slave
