And You were the one before trouble came,
Always kept praying.
Now I was going places I wasn't sent,
Was going through some changes,
Staying away from You, to distraction I was true,
My thoughts of you were few.
Lord, kill my flesh, break my desires.
Lord help me thirst after your righteousness.
Kill flesh now , Lord here I am,
I don't wanna be the same,
I thank You I'm not that girl again.
Never cared at all,
Never mind when I fall, I was so fearful.
My purpose had died,
There was no hope inside, never thought about the Bible.
But it was only God's grace,
Brought me back on the path to find my way.
There were no friends to say,
God's love will never go away, I had to cry that day.
Lord, kill my flesh, break my desires.
Lord help me thirst after your righteousness.
Kill flesh now , Lord here I am,
I don't wanna be the same,
I thank you I'm not that girl again.
Kill my flesh, break my desires.
Lord help me thirst after your righteousness.
Kill flesh now , Lord here I am,
I don't wanna be the same,
I thank you I'm not that girl again.
Kill my flesh, break my desires.
Lord help me thirst after your righteousness.
Kill flesh now , Lord here I am,
I don't wanna be the same,
I thank you I'm not that girl again.
Kill my flesh, break my desires.
Lord help me thirst after your righteousness.
Kill flesh now , Lord here I am,
I don't wanna be the same,
I thank you I'm not that girl again.
