O Lord
How I have fallen over
Allowed my flesh to take over
Addictions of old uncover
I’ve hit the floor
Because of self-effort
Sin has me in a corner
O how I mourn
Am spiritually sore
No more
Do I want to be torn
Lukewarm
I want to be all Your
In Thy arms
My Savior
My Shepherd
I give You full control
Body, spirit, and soul
Help me to Ignore
The distraction of this world
In Thy grace restore
Transform
My heart for Your
Mind and eyes make pure
O Heavenly Father
In You alone
I want to adore
You are my true life source
In Thy wings of love soar
Above life storms
Thy Word record
In my heart’s core
To go forward
Not backward
This I pray for
This I am sure
AMEN

- Comment from author about the poem: Proverbs 24:16 NIV for though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again, but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes. Philippians 1:6 NIV being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

Should it be 'flesh' in verse 1?
Good write Word. It's a serious theme, though - you fell over 7 times there?! Ouch!
Writing this from past, or current experience?
Some days are better then others. I just put my trust in Jesus everyday. I just wrote this because I was going through a time of hardship. God brought me out of it. I feel closer to Him today.
