Pet Sins

hanging low in the window there
colorful sweet and fair
can't help stop and stare

pet sins dance in front of me
flashing their eyes at me
lashing their lies at me

always always haunting me
constantly taunting me
ever wanting me

pet sins in the shadows there
waiting to ensnare
catching me unaware

things I would not those I do
chase the lie it must be true
i am nothing without You
i am nothing without You

drowned in the blood You freely shed
cursed crushed and dead
Sovereign grace instead

pet sins forgot forgave
with You to the grave
buried soul to save

things I could not now I do
drown the lie and raise the truth
made alive because of You
made alive because of You
