From Romans 7:23-25:  “But I see in my members another law at war with the law of my mind, making me captive to the law of sin that dwells in my members.  Wretched man that I am!  Who will rescue me from this body of death?  Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord!”

Remolding, new creation in Christ

Transforming self, flesh passing away

Turning to Jesus, finding new life

Lighting each path, righteousness holds sway

Restoring heart, Lord always with us

Healing spirit from sin, His way

Accepting grace from Holy Father

Feeling inner faith renewed each day

Walking with trusting faith, not by sight

Deepening Spirit rekindles life

Leaving sin’s guilt on Calvary’s cross

Living under Christ’s watch, without strife

Forsaking darkness, crushing evil

Seeking Jesus, His love walks ahead

Rescuing this life from sin and death

Lasting faith renewed daily instead

From 2 Corinthians 5:17:  “So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation:  everything old has passed away; see, everything has become new!”
