The Natural Man

I'm sorry Lord. I just can't get it right.
Forgive me- for my lack of sight.
If only I could be
all you see in me.
I fall short in keeping
promises you are seeking.
Though it seems I try,
yet in agony I cry.
I failed you again.

I need to put off the natural man,
to be found on your right hand.
Pure as a child;
meek and mild,
filled with love,
and return to you above.

In my carnal state is seems
I'm so far past feeling.
Lower than the earth's dust
sinks my soul 'cuz of lust.
And with tears of pain I plead-
O God have mercy!
Cleanse me through His sacrifice.
For I believe in Christ.

I need to put off the natural man,
to be found on your right hand.
Pure as a child;
meek and mild,
filled with love,
and return to you above.

...Put off the natural man.

That's My Life

My life ain't easy. My life ain't grand.
Things aren't always placed in the palm of my hand.
My life ain't perfect, My life ain't the best.
Now, let me tell you 'bout my hardest test.

I live life from day to day;
I'm always just one step away.
Never seem to find my place;
Got daily trials to face.

That's my life- Oh yeah, it's hard.
I'll keep trying- 'Cuz that's my life.

My life ain't sweet. My life ain't smooth.
Always gonna be days when I'm bound to lose.
My life ain't wonderful. My life ain't a breeze.
Now listen, and understand, please.

My life is hard. My life is tough.
But I know I'll make it through when the road is rough.
'Cuz I ain't doin it alone. Yeah, my life is guided daily;
God above watch over me
and bring me home to Thee.

That's my life- Oh yea, its hard.
I'll keep trying- 'Cuz that's my life.
