Parody of "Simply Irrestible" by Robert Palmer
(1 Corinthians 10:13, James 4:7, Heb. 4:15, Matt. 4:1-11, Eph. 6:12-18, 2 Cor. 10:4)
We cannot be invincible - but God provides the principle
For Baptist or Episcopal - that any sin's resistible
Sin's pervasive - can't ignore it - it's a powerful force
But He'll provide a way out when there's no other door
And you can stay put or leave - but now I've found that
Sin can be resistible
Our lusts can be so powerful - that sin seems unavoidable
But James says if we resist the devil,
He'll run away so miserable
It's a natural law - that no temptation befalls ya
'Cept the kind that is common to the rest of us all
It used to look good to me - but now I find that
Sin can be resistible
Please hold tight - there's no tellin' when he'll run away
Jesus Christ tells the devil where to go
Sin's unavoidable but that don't mean we'll fall
Read First Corinthians verse 10:13 because
God made a promise, baby, Satan ain't allowed
To tempt us more than we can bear I've found that
Sin can be resistible ...
LEAD
Our weapons aren't shootable - but truth is irrefutable
Our struggle isn't physical - so fight him with the biblical
Jesus faced him in the desert - he's a powerful tempter
Even Christ could have fallen - but you know He knew better
He used the Good Book you see - that's how we find out
Sin can be resistible ...
