Waiting by a window,
Calling out your name
You answer me always
If I cry in joy or shame.
You are secure to hold me
I trust no one else for this
You give me a deep peace
Your love is truly bliss.
I long to share what you give
With everyone I meet,
But constantly resistance
To freedom do I greet.
People just love their chains
Their comfortable bed of nails
Reluctant to try a freeing way
They cling to dead end rails.
They cling to dead end rails.
O Lord, please open their eyes
To see what you showed me
That worldly ways lead to pain
But it is You who sets us free.
