Controlling your thoughts

There is a truth that's quite profound
Because there's a new power source
That one of the fruits of the Spirit is
The ability to control your thoughts.

One thing Christians should never forget
Is that before they were saved
There was no power to control your thoughts
And destructive habits you craved.

Now a fruit of the spirit is self control
A fruit from a new power source
These new motivations that captivate me
Are not from my own resource.

Because there were thoughts to bring you down
Now thinking you don't make the grade
I capture & bring those incorrect thoughts
to the truth of when I was saved.

With new motivation and His Word
That make me no longer blind
I have everything that I need
To help me control my mind.
