To Be Free
By Sean Smith
© 2005

Born to die
But live cause of You
Don't know why You love me
But you do

The world saw nothing
You made me something
You died for me to be free
When the world lied to keep me in captivity

Now that I know the truth
I got one thing to do
That's live to serve You

Maybe through me
People will see Your love
Instead of taking a look
Saying, "He's just another thug"

I won't be a statistic
Or sad story
It's not my strength, Jesus
It's you I gotta thank and give glory

Life is joyless without the beautiful gift of outward expression; for it is sharing joy that makes it complete. Even grief and sorrow are better borne when shouldered together. The most splendid idea is fruitless until it is shared. This is what makes communication such a marvelous gift from God. From speech and song, to storytelling and social commentary, to poetry and parable, God has given us a powerful means of expressing ourselves as humans and reflecting Him as God. We invite you to share your own creative expressions and reflections by adding them to this living library.
