Source of Our Delight (Obedience)

Source of Our Delight (Obedience)

 

Take captive every thought to the obedience of Christ

For we are the blood bought, the bride purchased with a price

And to obey is better still than sacrifice.

 

Oh source of our delight

You along can set us right

The good, the beautiful, the true

Are all bound up in You!

 

The good fight must be fought, the battle must be won

The high ground must be sought and Godís will must be done

The race of redemption to the end must be runÖ

 

Oh source of our delight

You along can set us right

The good, the beautiful, the true

Are all bound up in You!

 

Our hearts are set on You

Our hope is bound in You

Our happiness built on You

Our holiness found in You

 

Take captive every thought and purify your mind

Think on the things you ought-as the Lord searches may He find

No impure thought of any kind.

 

Oh source of our delight

You along can set us right

The good, the beautiful, the true

Are all bound up in You!

 

2 Cor 10:3-4
