"Chains That Bind"

"Chains That Bind"...a poem by Night.2011 Posted On 01/06/2011 16:53:57

I beg to differ said I, for I disagree we thee

behind these prison walls I live

 yet truly am I free.

Now you might say that I'm the one who's really doing time

but search your heart for the truth

 and this you might just find.

That you've been bound in this life by chains you cannot see

a prison of your own design

 invisible to thee.

Tell me then the secret of your freedom, asked the man

fill me with your wisdom

 help me to understand.

The secret's not a secret but a gift from God above

it's belief in His son Jesus,

 and by walking in His love.

Thank you said the man, and my apology to thee

for it is I who am the prisoner

 a truth that I now see.

Apology accepted and this truth I pray you'll find

to believe in His son Jesus 

will break the chains that bind.

Thank you and God bless...Night.2012
