Freedom Means (1 Peter 2:16, Galatians 4:28-5:1)

a recent song from amongst the Saints

8/31/2003

God’s Spirit is upon Me

I Am anointed to proclaim Good News to you!

For all the captives who are blind but long to see…

This is your hour! I have come to set you Free! (Luke 4:18)

Chorus 1

And Freedom means you’re free to choose

A Life in Me you’ll never lose

To see through this world’s thin veneer

And know your future isn’t here

To feel the sand between your toes

And get a name nobody knows (Revelation 2:17)

To die to self and all its misery

Don’t you know that it’s for FREEDOM you are free? (Galatians 5:1)

Children of the New Jerusalem (Gal. 4:26)

Your liberation starts with treasuring this truth:

Why would you want to sin and live in slavery?

If you will trust Me, I will truly set you Free! (John 8:31-36; Romans 6)

Chorus 2

And Freedom means you’re free to love

To know that knowing Me’s enough

To burn your candle at both ends

And lay your life down for your friends

Free to have a mind that’s pure

To know your future is secure

To look into what angels long to see (1 Peter 1:12)

Don’t you know that it’s for FREEDOM you are free?

Fearfully you have tried to fight your sin

Still there has been no Freedom there

I am not asking you to try again

But to join Me in a holy love affair! (Romans 8:10-16)

Chorus 3

And Freedom means you’re free to care

To see the wind blow through My hair

Free to give your life away

And know it’s gonna be OK

To teach a child to catch a ball

To let Me be your all in all

To no longer try to “do,” but learn to “be”

Don’t you know that it’s for FREEDOM you are free?
