Do - Anointed

There is a war inside

Between my spirit and mind

I sit here wondering

«Why oh why?»

I find myself confused

Emotions on the loose

I know what’s right

But it’s often the wrong I choose

Shoulda done it Your way, but just like a child

I’m losing my direction, I need You to guide me

Turn me into someone that’s faithful and true

Give me the strength to live my life for You

Tell me why I do what I don’t wanna do

And I don’t do what I wanna do

Tell me why I do what I don’t wanna do

I live a double life

Sometimes I compromise

I feel ashamed of the way

My heart looks inside

And though I long to obey

Sometimes I drift away

And take for granted

Your never-ending grace

Help me to remember Your love for me

Take me to the river, wash me in Your mercy

You’re the Father of forgiveness, time after time

But still there’s something messing with my mind

Tell me why I do what I don’t wanna do

And I don’t do what I wanna do

Tell me why I do what I don’t wanna do

Tell me why I do what I don’t wanna do

(Oh, help me not to)

Do what You don’t want me to

(And do what You do)

Tell me why I do what I don’t wanna do

Only through You

I can do all things that should strengthen me

Only through You

I can do all things that should strengthen me

Only through You

I can do all things that should strengthen me

Only through You I can do

Tell me why I do what I don’t wanna do

And I don’t do what I wanna do

Tell me why I do what I don’t wanna do

Tell me why I do what I don’t wanna do

(Oh, help me not to)

Do what You don’t want me to

(Oh-oh, yeah)

Tell me why I do what I don’t wanna do

(Tell me, tell me)

Do what I don’t wanna do

Tell me why I do what I don’t wanna do
