Addiction

When you feel addicted to evil,
To the charm of vicious snares,
To things that will kill you,
And the addiction doesn’t care.

When your heart no longer sings,
If you’re lost despite your prayers,
You ask where redemption is,
‘Cause it seems no longer there.

It’s best to sit in silence,
A choice too seldom made,
Just listen for forgiveness,
For his mercy and his grace.

Don’t speak or contemplate,
Just become an open gate
You’ll feel your sin fade away,
Your addiction’s been replaced.
