Greed That Fills the Evil In Me
When we spin sin we think it's a win
We fill the evil that is within
Then we plant the seeds
That consumes my every need
When we feed our greed
It's hard to break free
Only then are we able to see
How it has its daggers into me
Oh Lord I plea don't give up on thee
Show me away from this hell
Make my spirit well
So my heart will swell
Oh please don't let me fail
My soul is so frail
Taking advantage of others
I find myself ducking for cover
Show me the light
So I can fight these feelings
That just might
Come back into sight
Take my hand so we can take flight
To your kingdom where I can
Get my greed set free
To fix what is broken inside of me
So you would know
How my heart grows in you
Greed is one of the 7 deadly sins
With you my Lord
My life can now begin
When we trust God we all win
He makes it possible to live life
Free of all sin
