Weeds

4:24

Song Description:

Satan’s influences rise like”weeds” in the “gardens” of our lives,

but you can do something about it.

———————————————————————————-

Lyrics:

 

Just imagine your life as a garden

and there’s weeds that are trying to grow.

There’s a  mighty big  reason, now don’t let me scare you,

you’re likely to reap what you sow.

    

Yes a gard’ner just can’t be effective

if his efforts have limits which show

that his time and his energy, faith and attention

are foiled by distractions, oh no!!

     Weeds! Weeds! Everybody gets them!

     Still, don’t be afraid.

     Weeds! Weeds! God will give you guidance.

     Pray to him for aid.

     

We can recognize weeds when we see them.

They compete for commitments to Him.

When you’re focused on pleasure, or jobs, or investments

it’s likely you’re slipping toward sin.

Take some care to acknowledge your plantings, 

in good time they will bloom all around.

Then you’ll soon have to reckon with all that production,

 effects on your life will resound.

Fertilizer you get from the Devil

will influence the fruits that you reap.

So a word to the wise, turn to Eden’s designer

Old Satan’s results won’t come cheap  

     Weeds! Weeds! Everybody gets them!

     Turn to God for aid.

     Weeds! Weeds! He will give you guidance.

     Help you with mistakes you’ve made.

     

Just imagine the ultimate bonus

when God’s bumper crop finally comes in,

you’ll look back and be thankful for your best decision,

and weeded your garden for Him.

Weeds! Weeds! Weeds are all around you, claiming your attention!

Weeds! Weeds! Weeds were meant to test you, Satan’s own invention.

Weeds!   Weeds!   They will not defeat you!

Weeds!   Weeds!   God will help defend you!

 God will help defend!
