I Was Born Again
I was born to a family with a sister and brothers
I was blessed also with a mom and her mother
I thought I was theirs to nurture and raise me
Till I could live on my own, but that was crazy
What no one ever told me, what nobody did say
Was before I was born, I was sold as a slave
The slave master, satan, was always around about
Though he was never seen or ever heard out loud
“Decide for yourself whatever is good or evil
Be your own boss, its your life and its legal
Be your own God, make up all of your own rules
Don’t let anyone tell you what to think or do”
Your parents never loved you as much as the others?
Be angry and bitter, don’t forgive them or bother
They did not care enough to punish you? Was it abuse?
They ignored you? Controlled you? There is no excuse!
Nobody really loves you, why do you go on living?
Everyone would be better off, I am not kidding
You will just be miserable the rest of your life
Get out of this hell, leave your husband or wife
You don’t need a savior you are not all that bad
You are a pretty good person, just dealt a bad hand
But something kept telling me this was not right
Not really on my own, but a slave day and night
Then somebody told me about a slave freer: Jesus
Who did die to redeem us and in the past freed us
Long ago He paid the price, I’d been freed for ages
If I believed all His promises on His Bible pages
I bought you from satan to whom you were sold
I alone hold your deed now, but you must be bold
When he comes to reclaim you and come he will
Show him your deed has been stamped: Paid in full!
I’ve forgiven you all of your debts that is true
But there are debts owed you must forgive too
I have died to free you but for you to be loosed
You must also loose all those who have hurt you
When I died, I gave you in My will to Father God
And to you I left all My power over satan to trod
If he comes to you with lies of any bill overdue
Show him My will, resist him, he’ll flee from you
God will always be with you, His promises are true
He will send His Spirit to live in and guide you
His love casts out fear and you will know peace
So trust in His love for you, be born anew. Free!
