Poem
Freedom to fly Is a God given gift Dreaming is as air is for living Flowing down from His highly exalted throne Freedom to fly Is not a privilege granted By rulers who’s realm of authority is ground bound Knowledge of wrong and right Is revealed to us From The Righteous One Who dwells in a kingdom on high Knowledge of wrong and wright Should not be dictated by corruptible judges Who suppress the truth For worldly praise Freedom to fly Is a desire Like an unquenchable fire A pilot that God ignited in side us When He created you and me Chains of sin Robs us of the freedom to fly Keeps our souls sinking in the mire God so full of love Out of His nature of grace and mercy Sent from His throne room a Savor to the people of the ground To shatter the chains that keep us fastened to the gates To the entrance of the lake of fire Freedom to fly Those who God has set free is free indeed Free to Fly on the Spirit wings That one day will carry them to God’s kingdom in the sky For those who think the message and Gift of God is a bad joke They will fabricate their own myths of hope Like the Greek Character Icarus They will try to acquire their own way to fly They will create wings out of wax and feathers As they Fly toward the kingdom in the sky The Son will melt their wings Written by Stephen J. Vattimo Feb 18 2012
