Freedom Poem by Gladys Brown Prince

Freedom comes from deep within
And reflects the heart and soul akin
It gives you permission to surmise
And your heart wisdom to realize
That freedom should not be in disguise

The freedom that the world demise
So often will not make you wise
It sometime gives you great surprise
When you were thinking otherwise
And did not consider compromise

Freedom sought by man on earth
Given by God who knows its worth
For it He established His son's birth
And settled for the mangers dearth
To prove how much a soul is worth

He frees man from the inner pain
Gained by sin from Adam's vein
The sick the halt the blind the lame
Who on the cross took all the blame
That man from sin could be reclaimed

Since freedom does not come from man
Can he indeed understand God's plan
To redeem man to his former stance
And secure for him in heaven a place
Where eternally he can live by grace

The freedom which you do now seek
Is given only to the meek
And you'll find the meek is never weak
Freedom gives you power to speak
With freedom you can take a break
