Living in the Flesh

God calling us
in that distant country
calling us home
yet we refuse to listen

Living in the flesh
ignoring our Father,
straying from the flock
wallowing in our rebellion

We may choose
whether or not to follow
to live in the flesh
or to return to the Father

He is calling
calling us ever
to come back home
to relationship with Him

He is faithful
loving us freely
wanting us to come home
that we may live.
