self control - b3ar fruit lyrics
intro: last but not least of the fruits of the spirit is self*control / without which none of these other fruits on this tree ever grow / the law of harvest says that you reap what you sow / so fertilize the roots so the fruit is sweet when it shows / the last of the fruits of the spirit is self*control / which we have to produce for these other fruits to grow / the law of harvest says that you reap what you sow / so fertilize the roots so the fruit is sweet when it shows //
hook: day by day minute to minute teach me your ways / god i pray by your spirit i will obey / everyday that you have given to me is grace / lord in all of my deeds and the words i say //
verse 1: ayo hope y’all ready to roll cause we gone dive into self*control and so lemme define it / if you peep the greek you’ll see that it means strength / and otherwise defined as one holding himself in / this is the virtue of one who masters all of his desires and all his passions / it’s what’s in effect when we deflect temptation that attracts us / it’s god’s given grace to resist when satan attacks us / it’s the last of the list in the fifth chapter of the fruits that are given so we can live them in practice / but only god’s spirit makes it active / it’s a massive feat like taking a whole city captive / it takes a mightier man to control his actions and watch what comes from his mouth cause he can’t put it back in / it’s what god is crafting in those that he’s drafted so let’s let him shape and mold us until we behold our master //
verse 2: walk with me on the stroll to the throne of grace of his highness / and recognize our need for what only he can provide us / let’s take our care to the father in jesus’ name / lord we acknowledge you’re worthy to be praised / and we confess that we’ve sinned against you today / i know i lack self*control and i need grace / i pray the same for my brothers and sisters listening / help us to obtain a good measure of self*discipline / cause as for me i know that i can be implosive and how i interact with folks can even be imposing / at times i need you just for me to be quiet and tame this wild tongue cause from it i breathe fires / plus i got a war inside with l*st and pride and at times i need you to help me to just turn my eyes / so it’s in the name of christ we taking our cares to you / and trust by the spirit of god we’ll bear fruit //
verse 3: so how do we grow in self*control? / well let us ponder some thoughts that i get direct from the scroll / (now) though it’s source is the spirit of god we’re still called to respond and contribute our part / like when god delivered israel out of the claws of pharaoh / and promised them a land they’d have to take by sword and arrow / to ensure them that he’d give them strength for this he caused a miracle / gave them a victory by marching round the walls of jericho / this is an ill*stration of the collaboration between god and man in sanctification / he promised them a land to dwell in / he promises to dwell in us so when we’re in the land we can reveal him / he gave them strength for the victory / and he provides us with the grace to grow in self*control effectively so / first we pray for the grace of god trust in him then we put work in like a job but / self*control is more than just actions it happens in the mind so we take every thought captive / and if we aim to live lives that rep him well / we need self control just to humble ourselves / it means forgiving considering and loving your brother / it’s carried out in the heart that’s given to none other / than to god who inspired his word and declared truth / so we can be living it out and bear fruit //
