Full and Free

I’m free from fear and full of faith in God
Now I’m wallowing in the wealth of His word
Walking and working in a wonderful world
My life is lively, lovely… leaning on the Lord

I’m saved from sin; I have no foes to fear
No thorns and thistles, no toils nor tear
I’m free from bondage and bold as a bear
Cruising on the narrow way on a gentle gear

I’m so youthful yet I do not yell or yearn,
When it rains and shines, I laugh, love and learn
That life is but a lovely lesson and I live to learn 
I’m glad and grateful… I have eternal life to earn

I’ve got a golden garden where goodies grow
And my kids I’ve got blessed balloons to blow 
My wife can’t hide her glorious glee and glow
As our farm is filled and our fountains overflow

United with my fans and foes…we are one
In this colorful county, we are full of fun, 
Faultless, fearless… we fear no gun
We are righteous…we will never roam nor run
