He loved the law of God
But was a slave to sin
He said there's another power
At war that is within: Lord I wanna do what's right
But it seems I can't
He was a miserable man
He couldn't understand

Oh these things that I do
They're not what I want to
Oh It's not me
But this sinful nature I've grown to

Cause It's more than flesh and blood
It's so much deeper than eyes can see, oh

He was a man of God and knew the God of man
The very first and last
The one to rule and win
Over sin
Death wasn't the end

Oh these things that I do
They're not what I want to
Oh It's not me
But this sinful nature I've grown to

Cause It's more than flesh and blood
It's so much deeper than eyes can see oh

If I sinned again and again and again
You'd love me without though
And if at all that I'm like Paul
You know I hate the way I sin

Oh again and again I'll never understand
Oh again and again You'd love me even then

Oh the righteous will fall
But the righteous will rise
Oh Lord I wanna search with
Much more than my eyes

Cause It's more than they can see
It's more than the flesh and blood on me oh
