My #sin drives the nails – v2 #Cross #Christ #sacrifice

There is a pattern in my walk…
I sin, I confess, I repent fully, Lord,
I change my path and turn to You;
But I sin, I fall, again, and again,
caught in my flesh, my body,
the familiar steps of my life...

My sin drives the nails that put Christ on the cross
Every single sin condemns me, convicts me…
I was the one who should have been crucified…
I cause the pain of his awful death…
I murder the Son of God, my Savior,
again, and again…

Every one of my sins is fatal, a capital offense,
causing eternal damnation, sorrow, regret,
summoning the righteous wrath of God…
Every sin I commit, each one, is enough,
to convict me to eternal death,
to send Christ to the cross...

Help me, Lord, to turn, to be faithful,
to be Your disciple, Your servant,
to fully reject me sin, my flesh,
to spurn Satan, my sin nature…
Help me to honor You, Jesus,
for You paid it all to save me...
