freedom of spirit, expression of souls
in a song, in prayers, hands uplifted
reaching out to touch, reach heavenly goals
and so speak to hearts by faith convicted

while a wall to climb, sorrow afflicted
these limitations man has set, enforced
thrown in confusion, gravely predicted
set in tradition, grandly endorsed

bereft of God’s calling, by action forced
subduing, setting rules to abide by
belying, denying, from truth divorced
demanding one’s all yet from nothing cry

but still the Holy Spirit moves, relates
to a worshipful heart God’s grace awaits
