Petra - Think On These Things lyrics

Music by Ronny Cates

In solitary time the thoughts run through my mind

Some from the very throne some origins unknown

I know there's a danger waiting

Thoughts held in captivity

The vain imaginations that long to be set free

I hold the key

With thoughts of purity

chorus

Whatever things are pure and true,

(I want to)

Think on these things

Whatever things are filled with virtue

Think on these things

When my mind begins to stray

I want to think the other way

Think on these things

Think on these things

Into the conscious flow the tributaries go

The source from which they start

Abundance of the heart

My mind has a mind of its own

choosing negativity

Only the thoughts of virtue

Withhold the raging sea

I turn the tide

By choosing to abide

repeat chorus

Whatever things are honest

Whatever things are just

Whatever things are lovely

I will put my trust

In the things that never cease

To keep my heart in perfect peace

repeat chorus
