Chains

The only chains we wear are the chains we won’t lay down
The story of free men once slaves now live unbound
O’ the pain of loss, no more shackled security
The only pains we shall bear are the pains of setting free
But would it be worth it?
Those stories of freedom could be all lies
And if we run away, who says we might not die
At least slaves still survive
And baptized with a Love, I shall not fear
For Freedom’s Fire consumes me
So give me a file or give me a key
I must, I must, I must break free from the chains
Or I will burn alive
I won’t live like this not forever
I will break free soon enough
My God is stronger than these chains
It’s my choice, hear His voice
“Let my people go free”
For freedom’s fire has consumed me

Wind and Waves

Fight for me cause when I fight I lose
I fall in your hands for You cannot be moved
And I give up all the comfort from the strength of my own hands
For I hear your voice say, “I will fight for you”
Ocean bound vessel sails into water’s noise
Tales of virgin lands fills the sailor’s voice
Laying down chains of old for Freedom’s Son on earth
My hands untie the ropes, conceive journey’s birth
Wind and waves call my name
“Rise to the fortune and fame”
Wind and waves call my name
“Have your hands found the power to save?”
Two thousand miles out we take the harder turn
Raging tempest’s fury ignites and starts to burn
And battered by the wind, and broken by the waves
My hands they slip as the ship they try to save
Wind and the waves call my name
“Fall to failure and shame”
Wind and the waves call my name
My hands have not found the power to save
Wood bulges and breaks
The Mast snaps under the weight
Hopes of virgin lands sink into the grave
As the sailors cling to the ships remains
A fellow sailor yelled above the wind a story once heard
Of a man who calmed the tempest’s fury with only His words
A Man who told those with Him He would never leave their side
The sailor said, “Call on the man, call on Jesus Christ”
