I’M ASKING FOR YOUR HELP LORD

He’s knocking on my door Lord,
That old devil in disguise.
He’s trying mighty hard Lord,
To tempt me with his lies.

He’s whispering in my ear Lord
And I know You gave me a choice,
But he’s whispering soft and gentle Lord
With such a charming voice.

So, I’m asking for Your help Lord,
Through each and every day,
For only with Your help Lord
Can I chase temptation away.

You know it’s really hard Lord,
For You were tempted too
But You rebuked that tempter Lord
And I want to be like You.

So help me lock the door Lord
Then throw away the key.
Cease his tempting voice Lord
And let my thoughts dwell on Thee.

Let me feel Your loving presence,
Bestow Your sweet, peace on me,
Keep me ever in Your presence,
Now and throughout eternity.
