Freedom came to rescue me, <br />From tired things I've tried. <br />With a wall around my pride. <br />And arrested me to see... <br />A peace within me deep, <br />Trying to get outside. <br /> <br />I... <br />Had not, <br />Thought about it being my guide. <br /> <br />I... <br />Had not, <br />Thought of peace as being my strength inside. <br /> <br />A freedom came to set me free... <br />From undecision and a vision, <br />Clouding up around me. <br /> <br />But I... <br />Had not, <br />Thought of peace as being my strength inside. <br /> <br />And I... <br />Had not, <br />Thought of peace as being my guide. <br /> <br />Freedom came to rescue me, <br />From tired things I've tried. <br />With a wall around my pride. <br />And arrested me to see... <br />A peace within me deep, <br />Trying to get outside. <br /> <br />A freedom came to set me free... <br />From undecision and a vision, <br />Clouding up around me. <br /> <br />And I... <br />Had not, <br />Thought of peace as being my guide. <br /> <br />No I... <br />Had not, <br />Thought of peace as being my strength inside.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
