You Can Have Victory In Jesus

Are there no shame or convictions…
As many people struggle 
with deep addictions.

The “pit of hell’s wrath” comes in various kinds.
As it “traps” and “ensnares” 
 many confused minds.

Many have lost any sense 
of a Godly morality…
As their lives are consumed 
with addictions and vanity.

What profits a many if gains 
all of the “pleasures” within?
If he daily struggles with a “habitual sin.”

Jesus made a way!  He made a clear choice!
We need to obey his word.  And listen to his voice!

If your life is going downhill…  
And things are getting “dimmer…”
With Christ on board..  
You’re sure to be a winner!

Christ has already defeated Satan, 
and the “grip” he has on you!
He alone can bring a healing…  
And really touch you!

Won’t you come to Jesus now, 
 with no hesitation?
He extends to you his love  
and a heavenly invitation!

An everlasting joy and love has been supplied!
This was completed the day 
our lord was crucified!

The blood and tears he shed…
Was meant for you and for me!
That we may know Christ!  
And receive the VICTORY!
