Lost its Sway

[Intro Solo & Riff] [Verse 1] I want to do what's right, but something pulls me down A war rages inside, a battle with no sound The good I try to grasp just slips right through my hands This heavy flesh and bone, shackles that remand My mind is set to soar, yet I remain bound To earthly desires that weigh me to the ground [Chorus] Oh wretched man I am, enslaved to darker things Whose power can break these chains and freedom bring? I'm torn in two within, righteous desires cry But sin's seductive voice whispers its dark lies [Verse 2] The laws of God I know, etched upon my heart But my corrupt nature recoils right from the start I'm bound by body's lusts, a prisoner of wrong How I long to be free, for truth to be my song [Build] This war within myself, I cannot seem to win Sin reigns victorious, I'm drowning in its din [Chorus] Wretched man I am, a slave to darker things Whose power will sever sin and new life bring? I do what I don't want, goodness fades away In this deadly cycle, who can bid me stay? [Bridge] Thank God the answer comes through Christ the Lord! His Spirit brings me life, no more discord From sin's dominion saved, by grace I'm free No condemnation now, victorious I'll be! [Small Electric Guitar Solo] [Chorus] No longer wretched man, saved from evil's sting The Lord has rescued me, His praises I will sing! By faith I overcome this battle night and day Christ gives me victory, sin has lost its sway! [Chorus] No longer wretched man, saved from evil's sting The Lord has rescued me, His praises I will sing! By faith I overcome this battle night and day Christ gives me victory, sin has lost its sway! [Small Electric Guitar Solo Outro]
