The Light Poem

The Light Poem: by Shawn Wilkinson I’ve done the hard work. My chains are Freed I’m am relieved I’m a new person indeed. Free to make new choices Out of the rut of sin. I’m rich indeed I’ve won the lottery Broken ties of shame and misery I’m on a new direction Unrestricted by the past I can Start over now… Reset button to my future! I’m clean from sin, forgiven of the past I’m clean now, forgotten off my shoulders. I’m leaving my past behind me now. I’m not returning to that trap of shame again. I’m not taking the same broken road again. Cause, I’ve got a new direction. I’ve have god on my side! A breath of fresh air I can see clearly now Friends and Family surround me now My vision is now unrestricted The clouds are lifted The sky is clear Barriers removed, my direction is true. Lifted out of darkness, a direction unforeseen by the enemy The walls that were around me are left behind Upward is my new direction, unknown from before His snare is left behind, to snare no more. My sin’s erased, there is no return. A blank slate for the lord to use and color. To his glory, I’m now on my path. To his glory, I’m now on my path! My slate wiped clean, with purity Prepared from your mercy, To live in me. My sins forgotten, it’s my new reality. Changed by his glory; I’m released Freed of my burden: sorrow, weight, sin, blindness, brokenness, loneliness, darkness, depression) I have renewal: Energized, Now I can see, Made new, real joy inside.
