A Psalm of Liberation
Lengua Inglesa IV
March 28, 2017
From the beginning of time we have done wrong
You gave us Your light, but we chose darkness
You came to save, but we refuse to be saved
Good, there is none, said the blameless One
The wickedness within blinded my eyes
Your light was distorted, I couldn’t see clear
If only I could hear then, actually I can
One thing You asked of me, believe
What for? Who are You? Do I need to believe?
Is that it? As simple as that?
Do you want not the heart of a maiden?
Do you want not the heads of 100 oxen?
The sacrifice has already been offered, He said
My Son’s life in exchange for yours
All your burdens, all your sins, all your iniquities
He bore them on the Cross of Calvary
He didn’t come to condemn, but to free you from your chains
Feel free, be free, liberate yourself, believe
You suffered, they mocked You and they do still
They spit at You, blindfolded You and beat You with their fists
You remained silent, Only Love occupied Your thoughts
Salvation for all was Your ultimate goal
I once was lost, but now I am found
Grace, You gave me what I don’t deserve
Mercy, You are not giving me what I deserve
From a horrible pit I was pulled out by Your hand
He died, He was risen, He reigns and He will come back
He payed my debt, I’m no longer chained
Sin has no longer control of me
For my spirit has been liberated and lives
And even when my flesh decays, my spirit will live on
In Heaven I will meet Him again
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless stand before the throne
Your works are marvellous, Creator of heaven and earth
Your liberation cannot be compared
Through the density of the Death Sea Your people passed
By day a shadowing cloud, by night a column of fire
In the desert, but an oasis were Your wings
You feed them with bread from the sky
You preserved them the way throughout
Your liberation continues until today
You have called us Your friends
While we were still against You
There is no greater love than
To lay down one’s life for one’s friends
Believe, I say, and be free
