My secret to life (Free verse) by amanda_dcosta
We say that life is difficult,
impossible to live !
If we just pause and view our hearts
there's nothing we can give.
We see the many broken homes
and children in the streets
with our own eyes we see the blind
we see each others' grief.
Sorrow fills our very lives
With hardships, guilt and chains,
Each one struggling to survive
on his own strength his pain.
It is not very easy
to bye-pass the things we see;
Yet we forcefully close the door
of our hearts with lock and key.
Many have come to show the way
that each of us should live
Yet, no where do we reach our goal
unless Jesus walks right in.
His life He lived by love alone
Love was His only strength.
By love he healed the deaf and dumb
And all with worldly strain.
His Love brought us our victory
death could not keep Him bound
with love He broke the chains that held
us prisoners all around.
He gave His crown of love's freedom
To start our lives afresh
To marvel in His radiance
Bring out in us our best.
So take a step to Jesus,
To the glorious one enthroned
And find your heart uplifted
To step out fresh in love.
