Poetry

---

Even though I am free,
I have to watch and see;
Not to become a slave,
That keeps me in my grave.

For it keeps someone weak,
In faith and feeling bleak;
When one is raising doubt,
What life is all about.

But I write for the sake,
So others are awake;
With the Good News to share,
For their lives to repair.

I keep my goal in sight,
As I run toward the light;
For running makes me wise,
As I reach for the prize.

So I will run the race,
So I can stay in His grace;
Since I know I can win,
Against the evil sin.

So I run with a goal,
To save my very soul;
From the bondage of hell,
So Heaven I can dwell.
