When a man dies unto himself

It's not a spiritual suicide

But to live only for Christ

He's the one whom I must abide

I can no longer look unto myself

Or be concerned for my own

I must look to the one who leads

And not to the road He leads me on

If I treasure the things of this world

I'll be missed from knowing what is true

If I look at anything but You

All I'll see is a distorted view

So many times I seek impurities

Chase after things I can't get

Lose sight of my priorities

Forget everything I've been taught

I wonder where you are

Why do you seem so far away?

Could it be I kick you out when you try to come my way?

Maybe it's time for fear and trembling

Maybe it's time to question myself
