Romans 8:7: The carnal mind is enmity against God

Tuts dire propensity to ill
Shall I, my God, for ever feel,
By nature to all sin inclined,
And born Thy foe in heart and mind?
Is it Thy holy will? And must
The flesh against the Spirit lust,
With all that Spirit's energy
Suppress'd, but not destroy'd, in me?
I hear Thy feeble children cry,
"Inbeing sin can never die,
God will not take the root away,
He never will its relics slay.
But let my Lord His counsel tell,
Must sin in saints for ever dwell?
Is this the glorious liberty,
The all of grace which is in Thee?

Thy Spirit in our inward parts,
Will He not purify our hearts?
A new, and sinless nature bring,
Out of a foul, unholy thing?
