So now we’ve got two songs and have covered Romans 8:1-6 with “There is Now No Condemnation” and “What the Spirit Desires”. Hope this helps all of us (myself mostly) get off to a good start!

This particular section was tricky because it isn’t a passage that one would naturally read and think…wow, this sounds like a song! When I saw words like ‘condemned’ and ’sinful’, ‘requirements’ and ‘accordance’…I felt like this would be a challenge. We actually turned the camera on as we ‘cracked the code’ and figured this song out….we’ll edit that footage and put it up soon, just for fun. You can see us struggling with phrasing and finally finding the groove. Here we go….enjoy!

By the way…these are rough demos (which is painfully obvious to a musician)…but, we are happy to put it all out there, faults and all, because the world should actually hear a ‘one take’ vocal without auto-tune every once in a while!

What The Spirit Desires (Romans 8 : 3-6)

And so He
Condemned sin
In sinful man

In order that
The righteous
Requirements of the law

Might be fully met in us
Who do not live
According to the sinful nature

What the Spirit desires…… But according to the Spirit
What the Spirit desires

Those who live
According to
The sinful nature

Have their minds
Set on what
That nature desires

But those who live
In accordance with
The Spirit have their minds set on

What the Spirit desires
What the Spirit desires

The mind of sinful man is death
But the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace

    These songs are God-breathed and wonderful. With your help, I’ll memorize Romans 8 for the glory of God and as a tribute to Katherine Wolf.
