Break the Walls

I built my walls on fear 

To protect me from the cold

To keep visitors at a distance

Feeling safer on my own

 

The Lord asked me to step out

To leave my dilapidated home

To led it fade from my vision

And trust in Him alone

One Word

Just one word

Whispered to me

My pride is silenced

The road turns to peace

“Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.”

Isaiah 30:21

Freedom

One drink led to twenty

Twenty led to years

No longer fun, my nightmare had won

And left me trembling in fear

A cunning ruler

Giving no mercy or peace

Yet I continued to serve it

Praying it’s rule would cease

Crouched in the dark, He led me out

He paved an escape route for me

No longer a slave, my freedom was won

Now I trust wherever He leads
