Sewing Up My Garment

Sewing up my garment trying to patch the holes
Sewing up my garment trying to protect my soul
The needle is the word of God the thread’s the Holy Ghost
Trying to get to Zion that’s what I want the most

Satan keeps on looking, looking for the holes
A place to stick his little darts trying to prick my soul
But I got news for him, I didn’t stay in bed
I got up and put on my clothes and went to church instead

Sewing up my garment trying to patch the holes
Sewing up my garment trying to protect my soul
The needle is the word of God the thread’s the Holy Ghost
Trying to get to Zion that’s what I want the most

Temptation follows me everywhere I go
Especially in the traffic when it’s moving kind of slow
I used to get frustrated but I don’t anymore
Now I just relax and go with the flow

Sewing up my garment trying to patch the holes
Sewing up my garment trying to protect my soul
The needle is the word of God the thread’s the Holy Ghost
Trying to get to Zion that’s what I want the most

Satan wants me with him he knows that he can’t win
He only tells me lies and pulls me down in sin
But I can look him in the eye with the help from the Holy Ghost
I don’t have to tell him he already knows where he’s gonna go

Sewing up my garment trying to patch the holes
Sewing up my garment trying to protect my soul
The needle is the word of God the thread’s the Holy Ghost
Trying to get to Zion that’s what I want the most
