The message of the gospel is that we can be free. Our prayer is that our lives will communicate this message.
lyrics
If I were to tell you
If you were to hear
If you were to understand
If I could make it clear
Then you, would be free as pure driven snow
Free like the winding river flows
Free like you’ve never known
If I were to show you and if you were to see
If the light began to shine
If it shined right though me
Then you, would be free as pure driven snow
Free like the winding river flows
Free like you’ve never known
If somehow this melody, would ring within your ears
If somehow this rhythm beating, would quicken at your heels
Preparing the way... of the Lord.
If somehow, somewhere deep down inside
There’s a voice that is calling, And a voice that’s crying out
To be free.... When all that you’ve ever
Began to be sure of, and all that this world has taught you to believe
And it all comes crumbling down,
Like a tower falling, crushing to the ground
You’re left alone there standing,
Before your eyes the truth laid bare,
Will you go on now pretending,
Or allow the scales to be lifted from your eyes?
If the Spirit’s calling you
If you find that you believe
If you feel the time is come
To bow down here with me....
Then you , will be free as pure driven snow
Free like the winding river flows
Free like you’ve never known....
