We Need More Holiness in Our Lives

We need more holiness in our lives
As evil forces around us intensify
To, then, really do what we came here for
As though, daily, in the presence of the Lord

If we could glimpse who we were
Before we came down to the earth
All our present problems would fall away
Knowing the covenants and commitments we have made

Start with once a day...and do an experiment
And test the importance of the atonement
Try doing a difficult task as a holy woman would
And make that difference you always wished you could

With the Lord's atoning blood, we know at length
Our weaknesses may turn into a strength
Then despite chaos... we will not shatter
For we're praying and behaving in a holy manner
