Free

don't forget to forget the self

decreasing, no need to use that time, that energy

On what's dead, not real

Increasing, He lives - He's given all:  life, power, freedom

Free to let go of the self, free from the slavery of feelings,

of performance, of license, of our own understanding ....

free to be owned by You, to be Yours, Yours forever

forever has passed us, is now, is future

look at the eyes

the eyes are the closest we get

the  closest we get to see someone's eternity because

we have flesh, but are not flesh

not the face, not the hands, nor feet, nor body

but the eyes.

His eye sees, He sees

someone said, "Remember me!"

it was the dust, he said

deliver us from the weariness,

the idols, idols to ourselves, of ourselves

the weariness of the burden, the lies that we

are more than dust, and that You do not see
