In Chains (Poem)
I am in chains to Jesus
Yet, I am completely free,
His yoke is easy
Where He is there is liberty,
Though I am bound to
Obey His holy will,
It is a place where I can rest and
Learn to be still,
I am chained to His heart
Without Him I have no peace,
His love draws me closer and
His love will never cease,
Why should I attempt to
Break these chains?
To seek my own established way
I reason, nay, I am in chains, and
In chains I will stay,
When without these chains
I was in bondage for real,
What a paradox, huh!
That’s the truth I can’t conceal,
I am in chains to Jesus
Yet, I am truly free!
I am bound by His love
Displayed for all at Calvary.
