a slave to the law of sin – v2

in my body, my flesh
in brokenness, in rebellion
no matter what a want,
how I long to follow Christ,

a slave to law of sin
to death, my wages,
held captive by desires,
by the sins of the flesh.

a slave to the law of sin
knowing its retribution
the judgment upon me,
but for the grace of Christ.
