Your body is your temple.
It is where our spirits dwell.
There’s those of us in Heaven,
while there’s those of us in hell.
The difference is who’s dwelling there,
just how our lives are spiced.
Does Satan have controls of us?
If not, does Jesus Christ?
Does Satan, uninvited,
sneak his way inside your heart?
Does he stand ‘tween you and Jesus?
Does he keep you two apart?
Does he play with your emotions
and create sinful desire?
Does he cloud the vivid picture
Jesus came here to inspire?
Or is Jesus Lord and Master?
Have you handed him the reigns?
Has he eased you struggling burdens?
Has he lessened lifelong pains?
Is his spirit burning bright in you,
for everyone to see?
Is it possible you struggle
in the same darn ways as me?
I try to give, to Jesus,
all my heart and all my soul.
So often, though, it seems to me,
that Satan has control.
Seems there’s sin, I can’t give up.
Things I know, are wrong.
I make a vow to quit them,
yet, I drag them, still, along.
I have this sacred temple,
where the Lord was meant to dwell.
A sanctity of purity,
‘til Satan cast his spell.
Entangled in the web,
his evil spirit came to weave.
I ask God to rebuke him
but it seems that he won’t leave.
I know this fragile temple
had been made for one reward.
To be the sacred dwelling place,
for Jesus Christ, the Lord.
There is no room for Satan.
It is time for him to go.
I’m tired of the way that he’s
restricting me to grow.
The more that I let Jesus in,
the less that there is room,
for Satan to run free in me,
to fill my world with gloom.
Only one sure way that I
can end this long affliction.
To side along with Jesus,
serving Satan his eviction.
To kick him out, effective now.
To send him on his way.
Whenever he comes sneaking back,
to turn him flat, away.
To keep away the conflict
that is keeping me in sin.
Cause, frankly, I am tired of him,
underneath my skin.
Perhaps you can relate to me.
He has your house divided.
You want to harbor Jesus.
Satan keeps you undecided.
The diff’rence is which one you choose,
inside of you, to dwell.
If your life will be like Heaven
or become a living Hell.
