Captive of Love

 

As I am locked away inside, from a world of love

For the Lord said I am your Heavenly Father and

If you trust in me and love me too,

I will set you free

I will care for you, and

Give you a place to sleep and a place to eat

And I will even take out the tears that are in your eyes

 

For if you look into my eyes of love and look

At the holes in my hands and feet and put your finger in my side

Then you will believe that it was me who was crucified

And died and was buried and arose on the third day

And is now seated at the right hand of the Father

For I was the one who took the sins of the world to be able to

Set you free from your captive

For if you would have known the The father you would have known me

What a way to be captured--by the ultimate love of a Father giving His Son to us, Who has our best interests in mind! Well done, Richard.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
