Free

With what words can I

express my gratitude

for the freedom

I have found in You?

What words I could say

would not be enough to

convey the debt

of love I owe You.

I was imprisoned...

held fast by strong chains of

my own making,

forged in fear and sin.

Miraculously,

Your love came rushing in,

striking those chains

and setting me free.

Redeemed and released...

how can it be that I

could ever know 

such joy, such freedom?

My joy is in You,

as is the hope that I

will no longer

imprison myself.

Captivated by

You alone, no longer

bound to this world,

nor constrained by sin...

free to soar above

confusion, shame, and fear...

I fly to You.

Your love gives me wings.
