Yes I know it is an American Holiday! WE are FREE! But guess what, in Christ we are REALLY Free! I dont want to get to talking about politics and how our country is even being allowed to function as it does today. But I do want to share the freedom found in Christ. The best way I can articulate my feelings is by sharing a song! It is one that I am loving right now!! It speaks to my heart personally and it is not just a feely good song! I would like to also share a video for this song as well so if you would like to see this song performed by Lakewood Church of Houston ( Fred Hammond wrote the song) then please click here!
Song : Free To Worship
Lyrics below
Verse1
Once far away
Now, I’m here to stay
Close to your heart
When I made mistakes
I thought You’d turn away
But, now I know
You have redeemed me by grace
The distance has been erased
Chorus
Now I’m Free
To worship You, Lord
With all of my soul
And everything within me
I’m free to worship You, here
Casting out fear
Your love draws me near
to worship You
Draw me close, Draw me close
Verse2
Once I believed
(that) I could never be
Close to Your heart
Now, I know the truth
I belong to You
Yes, I know
You have redeemed me by grace
The distance has been erased
Bridge
Jesus, I will not fear
I will not fear
Draw me close, Draw me close
Jesus, I will not fear
I will not fear
Draw me close, Draw me close
Chorus (Ending)
Now I’m free to lift up my hands
I know who I am
I know I am free to worship
I will not fear, I will not fear
Draw me close, Draw me close
AMEN!
