Lyrics

Self control
Lord lead me out of temptation
When I am weak, be my unstoppable strength
Fix my sight to be on You
Lord help me see it through
That I would not sin against You
Lord, guard my mind
Adjust my thoughts to be on You
Oh, for them to be on You
Keep Your Holy Spirit close by me
Lord, please guide me away, away from temptation
Self control
Lord lead me out of temptation
When I am weak be my unstoppable strength
Fix my sight to be on You
Lord, help me see it through
Lord, that I would not sin again
Jesus, be my light in the dark
Let Your light shine bright
So I can see Your truth, Your Holy truth
Oh, Lord, be with me oh
Self control
Lord, lead me out of temptation
When I am weak, be my unstoppable strength
Fix my sight to be on You
Lord help me see it through
Lord that I would not sin against You
Lord, guard my heart
Help me not fall apart
Keep me within Your reach
Lord, this is my holy cry
This is my full extended reach
My one defense
The protector of my heart and mind
May the temptation not win this time
Jesus, I need You
Oh, I need You
I need thee every hour
Stay thou nearby
Temptations lose their power
When thou art nigh
I need thee Oh I need thee
Every hour I need thee
Oh bless me now my Savior
I come to Thee
Oh, self control
Lord, lead me out of temptation
When I am weak, be my unstoppable strength
Fix my sight to be on You
Lord, help me see it through
Lord, that I would not sin against You
Oh, self control
Lord lead me out of temptation
