Setting me freeA Poem by Lynn Higgs
Setting me free
Unlocking the cage Was just the beginning Of his kindness As He came in the cell To pull me out Cover in chains Could not move All the past Hiding the person I was inside Slowly unwrapping the chains That winded around my body He started breaking them apart Giving me his full attention Trying his best to not hurt me More than was necessary As I try to move Muscles tone was gone Fear had set in Could not stand on my legs He held me up And taught me how to walk again But I had no direction So He grabbed my hand with one hand While holding a lantern with the other Lighting the path we were going Slowly guiding me back To the place I belong In his domain, his kingdom, his arms of protection There he show me who I was While loving me through my tears Giving me back my courage Helping me to grow again in Strength My Knight in shining armor Came and rescue me from the gallows Brought me home Heal me with love Taught me how to live And release me to show others How his love is the Love That will calm the fears Stop the winds Make the ocean smooth So they can live with His joy, His purpose, His way MY Saviour MY God Is the only true one that Can set anyone free The work is not finish As he continues to show me The last of my chains he is breaking That stops me from living Because his purpose is To set us totally free Lynn Higgs 07/18/2009 © 2011 Lynn Higgs |
