Are You Handcuffed By Sin

Are You “Handcuffed” to Sin?

Many lives have been handcuffed by sin!
They’re in a struggle, but they’ll never win!

So many are facing life changing addictions…
And bring into their lives
unneeded afflictions!

The shackles of sin have held them as a slave.
Their soul, for sin’s dominion,
is what they gave!

Many have cried; “Lord, why did I do it?”
They were given a chance in life, but blew it!

Jesus stands knocking at your heart’s door!
He brings true love and freedom! 
 And much more!

The handcuffs of sin,
 can be removed in an instant!
Won’t you give Jesus your life?
And a total commitment?

He can bring hope and a life
 changing restoration.
Through Christ, you can be
 a brand new creation!

He can do right now, what no other
 power can do!
The choice is yours!  What will you do?
