Standing in the valley of decision, trying hard to make the right choice
The devil had called. I staggered and stalled.
Captured by a sweeter, gentler voice.
My life had become like a tavern. Lonely and darkened with sin.
Jesus said let me in and I'll be your friend.
That's when renovations began.
CHORUS
From a tavern to a temple, where the holy spirit dwells.
What a difference His love made, my soul was saved from Hell
Grace hung a new sign above my heart's door.
Now this temple is not a tavern anymore.
Old friends that once hung 'round the tavern,
They don't have a home since things have changed.
Addiction to fear and terror reigned here,
Til lovingly He healed and rearranged.
There's peace now, inside of the temple.
Satan has forever lost the war,
Now my heart is a throne for Jesus alone.
And this temple is not a tavern anymore.
