Freely Freed

Worthy of love, who can be?

Worthy of God, no eye can see.

This world commands, nothing is free-

You must earn reward, earn your keep!

Still, love is more than one could afford-

Love is life and comes from the Lord.

He decides and loves free-

I long for love, it is all I need.

Prevent I insult with efforts in vain-

To uselessly work, may we now refrain.

Accepting God's gift, soothing our pain!

None is equal nor above..

Everlasting love;

It is grace, nothing less-

Saving us with love's best-

Can't explain, I confess

Could never pass love's test-

Still I hold what has saved,

From that which I've strayed..

Love has overcome..

My downfall, deaf and dumb.

Love is all I need;

Freely I am freed!
