In You, I am free.
Not just from death and destruction, though I am.
Not just from sin and its choices, though I am.
In You, I am free to live.
Not for the family who wants my best in their eyes,
Not for the friends I love, binding their lives to mine,
Not for the race that calls all rats to run,
No, not even for the sake of my own virtues and vices
That pin down, forcing me into patterns of repeated successes and failures.
No, no longer forced to live for me,
I am free to live ... for You.
