For a long time I traveled,
Down a long lonely road,
My heart was so heavy,
In sin I sank low.
Then I heard about Jesus,
What a wonderful hour,
I'm so glad that I found out,
He would bring me out through His saving power.
Thank God I am free, free, free,
From this world of sin,
Lost in the blood of Jesus,
Been born again.
Hallelujah, I'm saved, saved, saved,
By His wonderful grace,
I'm so glad that I found out,
He would bring me out through His saving power.
Like a bird out of prison,
That's taking its flight,
Like a blind man that God,
Gave back His sight.
Like the poor wretched beggar,
That's found fortune and fame,
I'm so glad that I found out,
He would bring me out through His saving power.
Thank God I am free, free, free,
From this world of sin,
Lost in the blood of Jesus,
Been born again.
Hallelujah, I'm saved, saved, saved,
By His wonderful grace,
I'm so glad that I found out,
He would bring me out through His saving power.
I am FREE!!!!! As I think about Memorial Day, that is the first word that I think of. I am free to worship the Lord out in the open and share the Gospel with the people that I meet in my life because of the men and women that have served my country. I am also free from the bondage of sin because Jesus took the punishment. He took MY blame and died on the cross for ME and everyone else in this world.
Both freedoms took a payment...and that payment was bloodshed. Jesus Christ died for me so that I didn't have to spend eternity in hell after I die. Also, many men and women have died serving our country so that we could have the freedoms that we have today.
I just want to thank all the people who have served, are serving, and will be serving our country.
God Bless America!!
