Jeckyl and Hyde
Disciple's song "Jekyll & Hyde" explores the internal battle between sinful nature and the new life found in Christ. The lyrics candidly admit to struggling with pride, selfishness, and hurtful words, while also recognizing the transformative love of God that enters the heart. The chorus highlights the contrast between the old self and the redeemed self, pointing to the hope of change through faith. The song resonates with anyone who has felt the tension of living for self versus surrendering to God, ultimately affirming that God's love provides a way out of that struggle.
My nature's sinful from my birth and I have trouble finding my worth
My mind is filled with evil thoughts
and I forget everything that I was taught
I keep on going back to my ways
I live to please myself and stay away
Caught up in pride and selfishness
I will give nothing more and nothing less
[Chorus]
Inside my heart I open up and let Him in
Inside my heart I find His love and that there is
THE OTHER SIDE OF ME
It seems I fall and get back in line
I know I can't make up the wasted time
My words lash out and kill my prey
And then I can't take back the words I say
