How long must we dwell
“I’m a sinner,” to tell?
Though true it may be,
The Spirit’s fruit sets us free.

As for those dead in Christ,
In Him are forever alive,
How, then, shall we have our breath
Without the Word, our daily bread?

In us, the Spirit rebirth
A life set apart; the Spirit compels,
Not in arrogance and pride
But in humility, we must abide.

Sinners, yes, we have all sinned,
But in Christ, we’re redeemed,
Not to continue in our old ways,
And take for granted His saving grace.

But to live in all our days
As the Spirit leads the way.
We’re not perfect, don’t forget,
But in Spirit, we must progress.

So, “I am a sinner” mustn’t be an excuse
to live a life of faith abuse,
Let the Spirit lead you on,
To live a life of Christ’s reflection.
