Jacob Bell - Lust

You thought you loved her but that's only partially true
These choices you've been making wish you knew

Late night on your phone scrolling through those pictures
Wishing you could go and get it
But it's just a picture not real life
This depth of emotion it is sacred
Only for your wife
I'm sure you feel the heartbreak
How can you endure the strife
Tearing you alive
But the high is making you feel right
The devils got you gripped on tight
How you gon' survive tonight
I know you're trying that's not enough
For just one man lust will corrupt
No light in darkness'll mess you up
Be a man and choose to love

The difference between love and lust
Lust is selfish love is tough
I know that all too well
Here's my story I will tell

Met a girl at fifteen
Felt as though she was the one
Fell in love it was quite fun
Thoughts of marriage on the run
But then one night the devil came and spoke his lies into my brain
He'd come again each time in a new pretty disguise
Secrets had been kept 18 months went by one breath
The day had came her heart had broke how could she trust me again
It took great time and full repent
Lots of thoughts to circumvent
The lust I had needed to die
Took a dagger through the eyes

The difference between love and lust
Lust is selfish love is tough
We are not alone right now
Jesus to you we bow

Hard work and persistence are needed to get out of this
Treat it like a war
Make your marks and strategize some more
Go and tell a friend
Community can break the chains
Repentance can build the frame
Please be thankful praise his name
Jesus Jesus! I will shout
Saved me from my thoughts and doubts
Took me back into your home
He set my eyes back to my hope
Hasn't loved me any less
Even though I am a mess
That is love that is my choice
Used my lust to lift my voice

Jesus you are my love
