The Awakening

It's the space where I can breathe ascending mountains yonder A green expanse where souls can feed and be filled with all God's wonder Soft white clouds caress my face as I soar through winds around me All shades beneath blend and embrace the speed of light can move me So here I am..I'm heading where.. across a plane unknown I turn and dive beyond my fear a bird set free to go gone past the day towards the night I sail towards a star No..too much darkness..I'm filled with fright The star..it's distant..far I cannot fly beyond this zone I'm such a little light in all this vastness Where is my God... I'm scared... I'm all alone Lord pull me out of this darkness With utmost speed I'm being drawn I see this planet Earth A sudden landing from where I'd been torn inside here since my birth I'll venture out again...I will.. Indescribable that high Ecstatic..Free..Where time stands still Where I'm part of wind and sky Now consciously for God I look to answer what I saw As cautiously I read the Book he leaves an open door But darkness makes me feel I'm wise.. convinces me I'm weak He shuts my ears and blinds my eyes while I earthly pleasures seek He plots the ways for me to die He vows I'll never see He turns the truth into a lie that God is in Christ in me How is it that I'm pulled out of this deep and frightening hole A sinner who has learned about salvation for my soul Unworthy as I lived in strife yet now an example of reform that all may know what is that Life that bonds Love and Light..transformed Now no more held but taking hold refusing to be captive For inside of me is strength untold no more to leave inactive So get behind adversary and tempt me not with sin Great is the love that set me free for whom I'll fight and win...
