Sin festers just beneath the skin
To control the man within
Lord help me to rely on you
In the shelter of your truth
As sin festers just beneath the skin

Sin tries to take control of me
But I thank my God I've been set free
Free from all inside that hates
Tossed into the fiery lake
As sin tries to take control of me

I rely on the promise heard
The promise of your Holy word
That sets all the captives free
From sins pain and misery
I rely on the promised word

I could never be who it is I am
Without the precious blood of the sacrificial  lamb
Who loves and died for me
As my sin's now history
I could never be who it is I am

I must now be the sacrifice
Not one in death but one in life
To the one who set me free
Jesus Christ the reigning King
I must now be the sacrifice
