Newly Afresh

Forgotten old time of sinful life
As I boldly stand with shinning lights
Then my lamp filled up in Holiness
As my oil is sustained by faithfulness

Period of darkness lust and vice
Lost forever and never will it be alive
Falling and rising never my time
Purity and chastity never got for a dime

Was bounded and made a living dead
But then I saw Him and He said
'I will make a way in the wilderness'
Even a river out of desert of my barrenness

Then into a fruitful life of righteousness
There I fell at the cross in soberness
Then He washed me by His blood
As I was freed from bondage of lust in the world
