I don't know if I am gay, or if I was merely led astray.
He Reigns

I don't know if I am gay,
or if I was merely led astray.
All I know is that today,
I choose no longer to be gay.

It has been my source of pain,
and caused my heart much suffering.
So from now on I shall abstain,
and welcome in the Lord to reign.

This doesn't mean that I'll be straight,
but I will surely subjugate.
And doing so will change my fate,
so I may step through pearly gates.

Mysterious are the Lords ways,
and in me He has caused a change.
Debauchery no longer reigns,
with Gods help I shall refrain.

Today I choose not to be gay,
and I am free from sin and shame.
I called upon the Lord, He came,
and now in me He lives and reigns.
