Freedom - 1
Freedom to believe
The way my heart says to
Freedom to give
From the depths of my soul
Freedom to live
The way my God tells me to
Freedom to feel
Passionate and full of praises
For the One who created me
And gave His life so I might
Accompany Him in eternity!
Freedom, liberty to breath
Like light twinkling in the stars
Wind brushing the softest thoughts
Laughter coloring grace and hope
Freedom to express your faith
And freedom to remain silent
Both rejoice in the choice
That is honest and spontaneous
A phrase of sweetest abandon
Wrestling hope from its shell
Of fears and tears that cover
The years in darkness
That appears when sorrow and strife
Are allowed to shadow a heart
Fade a feeling of freedom
Into the night of a prison
Created on control’s persuasion
Freedom opens the door to blessings
That are poured out on souls
Who know that God frees everyone
From their own prison
Of pain, sorrow and dejection
From the grief, worry and rejection
From the loss, dread – with protection
From all the past that haunts
With memories of sins who taunt
Freedom in Christ flows in the veins
Of those who know true freedom
Comes with a knowledge that salvation
Is a gift of grace through faith
Brought by our blessed Savior
To those who heed His still, small voice
Discovered in His Holy Word – the Bible
Thank God I’m free to hear Him speak!
Ephesians 2:8-9
King James Version
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
