Flesh Vs Spirit

Oh, when I present in the flesh It takes me back To the labor pains My wife endured It shook my soul in watching Oh the pain and anguish That was taking place The screaming that I had Done this to her And grabbing me As to yank out my soul Then our child Was brought into this world And all the pain disappeared For peace and joy Had taken over When she held him And looked in his eyes This is a picture of what It's like living when we Are the ones in charge in the flesh All the worries of this world Will cause ones soul to scream And keep one focused on earthly wisdom But when the spirit in born And separates us from this world There comes a joy and peace Like no other You will find on this earth And come to love all For the flesh the World Serves leads to death And this includes all Before being born again As the only living God Breathes life into ones that seek To bring you out the chaos around you And give wisdom To be pulled away From this wicked generation As it has always been To be filled With every lasting Joy, peace and love As my wife Seen as our child was born Love you all
