Break Free (Poem)

 

Break Free

Break free from the binds that drag;
Throw away those worthless rags.
Seek the Lord with all your heart and soul;
Precious Jesus - He will make you whole.
Let Him consecrate every part of you,
You'll be refreshed, your heart made anew.
Pray - don't let a day go by;
Today, let your spirit fly;
Sheltered in the wings of His love,
Worshipping the Holy Father above.
Let go of whatever holds you back -
With Jesus, you will never lack;
Providing your each and every need,
From sin, your soul will be freed.

So break free from the binds of old,
And let your heart, the Spirit enfold.
Give love so graciously;
You're changing, and everyone will see
What it is to be a saint -
All that you are, not what you ain't.
They will see Jesus, our Lord, through you,
And be amazed by all you can do
As you're filled with His strength and power -
He will be with you, each and every hour.
He will always be right by your side,
Because His love is so deep and wide.
His glorious grace will never end -
Trust in Jesus, He will be your Friend.

Hebrews 12:1-2 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
