Ascend With My Savior
Days were I have chains on my ankles,
I moan and groan because I don't have a key.
Today I embraced the work Jesus did on the cross,
and now it makes sense that you can be free.
I remember I used to be like Adam, sitting through services without comprehending a word.
Feeling like the world will never unlock these damn chains,
wishing I could Carpe Diem,
and feel like I'm somewhat sane.
But at night I call out to my savior,
I beg for his friendship, I beg for his love,
I beg for these addictions to become bearable.
Then suddenly I feel affection from above.
This affection was celestial,
so I knew it was from my savior.
I felt like I won a prize,
and today I realize..
That we are his portion,
He is our prize.
If you ask, he can operate in your life,
Because his spirit is surely alive.
He can break chains,
but it's YOUR choice to surrender,
and to conjoint faith&reality,
and to feel the love from the sender.
I know I'm not a preacher,
or anything close to one,
But if I send you an invitation to believe,
I wish you could feel like his daughter or son.
