DANCING





Allowing the Tempter to enter in,


Somewhere along a righteous way


I slid headlong into moral decay.




Unwitting with the Devil I danced,


In his promenade of sin I pranced,


Proudly waltzing to his profane song


As his chokehold grew ever strong.




I danced at the end of his string


As a puppet to chants he'd sing,


I danced for pleasures of the flesh


And tangled deeper in evils mesh.




Round and round I sinfully whirled


Until Satan's hellish plan unfurled,


He was thieving bits of me each day


Slyly stealing chips of my soul away.




I was the only puppet at this dance


And it was not by random chance,


When I left God and fell by the way,


Satan picked me to dance that day.




I'd slid to the bottom of a dark hole


And Satan was attacking my soul,


I looked up to Jesus from that pit


For Christ is the one way out of it.




Lift me high oh Redeemer I prayed,


Bear me up from where I've strayed,


Forgive my sin and restore me whole,


I lay before you my tattered soul.




In God's mercy my life spun around


In His grace I pace on holy ground,


My path to Heaven is shining bright,


My eternal home is clearly in sight.




God redeemed me from a life of sin


And tenderly seeded His love within,


Never again will I waltz to Satan's fife,


I dance only for God and eternal life.
