Tuesday Thoughts [1] - Free



They may have seen the answer
But they are still so blind
Refuse to believe
The truth in front of them
That they can really be free

They struggle and suffer
Hiding their unbelief
They're chained by doubt
Burdened by fear
When trials come
Where do they turn?

There's no peace inside
No hope outside

We were once in their place
Chained and imprisoned
Burdened and afraid

Until we were made to understand
And believe the truth
That we can be free

Remember the captives
The burdened and afraid
Go tell them the truth
That will set them free

And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free..// John 8:32

 Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation...//Psalm 25:5

  6. Wow, awesome poem, Emily! And those are really good verses that go along with it! We are reading through a series called the "Viking Quest", and it has a theme that's really similar. :)
