Beth Moore (in her Esther Bible study) challenged me to tell what God has done for me. Where do I begin?
My Savior, Jesus Christ, set me free:
from eternity in hell
from slavery to sin
from death
from hunger for people's approval
from loneliness
from selfishness and self-centeredness
from perfectionism
from fear
from desperation
from from infertility
from grief
from bitterness
from outbursts of anger
from self-righteousness
from vanity and pride
That is the truth...no matter what the facts in my life appear to be, with my many failures. My Lord picks me up and dusts me off, spanks me when He needs to and wipes my tears. I thank Him and love Him so much!
Oh my chains,
I can't disengage,
I don't believe that I want to,
One hand sings your praise, the other brings me shame,
I have selfishness to blame...
And I'm singing for freedom,
I know I'm not the only one praying to the one,
Who can bring me this freedom,
I'm ready for change, change, change, change...
Looking down I lay,
I keep holding my chains,
No longer bound but here I stay,
I scream father please,
I need rescuing,
I need you and you alone...
And I'm singing for freedom,
I know I'm not the only one praying to the one,
Who can bring me this freedom,
I'm ready for, I'm ready for...
Still you patiently await yet I won't just let go,
I see you and you alone,
Say come follow me cause there is you can't see
So I'm singing for freedom,
So I'm singing for freedom...
The time has come-separation lost the war to love,
Take my hand, grace is found-yeah-where your words begin,
You're alive, you're alive,
In the waking of new life,
Take my hand, in the end there's only love...
(Ooooo) there's only love (oooo)
There's only singing for freedom,
I know I'm not the only one praying to the one,
Who can bring me this freedom,
I'm ready for, I'm ready for-
Father please, I need rescuing, I need you and you alone...
