Unless a seed falls
to the ground and dies
It will never touch the sky -
Our flesh's lusts and desires must perish
for the desires of Heaven to be cherished
Turn, turn, turn
or burn, burn, burn.
We must die in order to live.
We must not cling to our lives but give.
We must become living sacrifices,
to avoid the enemy's enticements.
So if you find
you've fallen
lie still
for your God is callin'
You to fulfill his will.
Surrender completely to the soil of his word.
Become fully submerged,
so nothing of your old man
can be seen again.
Then and only then can
the you He's desired to be
sprout tall for all to see -
A bloom in the garden
of his planting,
pleasurable forevermore,
a child in good standing....
