Virtue: Self Control

Worship Song: Think It Through

- - - - - - - - - - -

For every distraction, there is a reaction
For every decision, a moment of truth
For such an occasion, there is a persuasion
A simple answer, in front of you
So many opportunities
For you and me
To be who we were made to be
Slow down, think it through, make a choice
You’ll see

Do what you know to do
Not what you wanna do
Give ‘em your best you
And everybody wins
Do what you know to do
If you’ve got a mind to
But you’ve got to follow through
You’re better when you
Show a little self-control

With every emotion, there will come a notion
Call it a crossroads, a judgment call
Your best option is using caution
And getting it right after all
Slow down, think it through, make a choice
You’ll see

Do what you know to do
Not what you wanna do
Give ‘em your best you
And everybody wins
Do what you know to do
If you’ve got a mind to
But you’ve got to follow through
You’re better when you
Show a little self-control

Stop before you lose your temper
Pick your words with care
Know when to put the brakes on
Let love win
You know what to do

Do what you know to do
Not what you wanna do
Give ‘em your best you
And everybody wins
Do what you know to do
If you’ve got a mind to
But you’ve got to follow through
You’re better when you
Show a little self-control
