When I’m Free

Seen in the book “Tough Enough”

Sunlight breaking through rain clouds above a flowering meadow and ocean.

With each passing summer day
With each snowflake God has made
With every flower that blooms
Gods eternal love looms
With every whisper of his love
With the ocean crashing each day
This is the Earth God has made

When the clouds gather round
And the rain starts fallin down
When the sun is hot
And the flowers begin to rot
When we lose all hope
And when temptations get provoked
When we lose sight of his light
And we lose our everlasting might
But when we grasp it once again
Then hope can live again

For when , Jesus I can see
Then I’ll know I’m truly free.
