Release

"The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed," NIV Luke 4:18

I'm hanging desperately, clinging to my memories
Holding on to my troubles, sorrow and pain for dear life
Living in fear, darkness, just wondering, how to be free
Trying to cope, at the end of my rope, drowning in strife.

Then a soft voice I hear; rejoice do not fear; I'll set you free
Repent of your sins; Let Me come in, just let go! Release
No, no, no! You must let go! Abandon all misery
Let go of the rope! My arms are your slope; slide in to me.

When Lot's wife looked back; into her track she turned into salt
You must look ahead or soon you'll be dead; follow the light
Seek truth and just love; as I pull you above; there's no fault
No blame and no shame when you follow My Name. All's right.

I am your Brother; unlike others; I'm Son of God, Christ
I paid in blood gave Love in a flood, now you can have peace
But you must not dwell on misery, be swell, feel nice
Let everything go; let go of your rope, you must release,

Release it all.

Newell darling boy this is utterly wonderful and I love it. I can feel true peace and wonder in this. Its utterly marvellous writing. HE is surely in your pen today, you normally write well today these poems I’ve read are inspired.

Utterly sensational writing

yes, and even those with faith are scared to death of not trusting enough, thank you for your words, they are light in darkness.
