Feed the Spirit
Unrighteous, ungodly desires(spring up)
Those desires bubble up
From the flesh notions of sin stand
From Jesus flows grace's cup
Sin wrought so much concupicence
See the Law is Holy
Man in his separated state
Very carnal, lowly
There is a present principle
What one would do, they don't
What one shouldn't do, they do much more
Oh! Wretched man the tone__
Christians delight in God's great laws
Let the inward man feast
Crucify now the carnal man
Feed the spirit for increase
Based on The Apostle Paul's writings in Romans
The seventh chapter, King James Version
