We are tempted – v2

We are tempted
in this life, in moments,
our desires, our flesh,
evil leads to sin, to death…
 
We are tempted
to stray, to wander,
to sin in our bodies
to turn away from God…
 
We are tempted
by evil in our daily living
our walking on the earth
in our daily lives…
 
We are tempted
but we must reject their cries,
the demons, the sirens,
we must turn back to God…
