I don't belong to you anymore.
At one time in my life you had a
strong hold.I was traveling
down a rocky road.
But now I'm set free. Set free
for all eternity.You had me thinking
I would never amount to anything.
You gave me all the heart ache that
pain can bring. You made it appear
it seems, that Jesus was just a
fantacy or a make believe
dream. Depression and
despair were every where.
I could not see into the light.
I even entertained the thought
of taking my own life.

I was living a life of strife
and literally running for my life.
My father said child, this will
only last for a while. Remember
times will get hard but you
belong to the most high GOD.
Your life may get rough but
it's not yours to take. Don't let the
devil fool you, don't make
that mistake! I gave you
life, I breathe your first breath.
Go on and live child, don't hurry death.
I rose up from my despair
and took my first step. like a baby
learning how to walk. Like a child
learning how to talk. I read your
word and your will I sought.
I read your word and it spoke to me.
It said come find
true love that will last for
all eternity

I don't belong to you and more.
Your lies and deceit I have
come to abhor.
The love of GOD I have
learned to adore. At times you
try to creep in but the LORD
has closed that door. He said
my child you don't belong
to him anymore go out and
tell others it’s the LORD your living for.
