Get Away a Song of Freedom and Praise
Written in the middle of my sons first hospital stay before detox and rehab.
get away
a song of freedom and praise
to a place I've never seen
You take me where I can be truly free
no burdens nor cares of this life for me
only a beautiful joyful space
where every worry is erased
with one look at Your kind and gentle face
and a reassuring touch of Your powerful hand
leading me through
this promised land
together forever just like You had planned
singing and dancing like children again
filled with life,
rich and
abundant
no more strife,
You've raised me
above it
I've been healed and restored completely
You've conquered all that was designed to defeat me.
with Your own life and blood, did sacrificially release me
paid my debt in full so I could have new life
having fought every battle for me that there was to fight
got me away from dark and led me into The Light
now, please help me to keep forgetting what used to be
I need You to keep reminding me
that in You, I have been made complete
I have no need for anything else
You've given me everything
even Your Self
my soul is saved and it is well
Now I truly live to obediently tell
of Your Love and
my getaway to joy and bliss
from the incarceration of hell
This message must be shared
with others still blind and confined there
they need to know there's a place where
In Your grace, they too
can getaway and make it through
and be blessed to live in freedom
in real life,
in You!
