Which freedoms do we value

In a moment of reflection
may we stop on Independence Day
to think of our freedoms
in a totally new way

To answer honestly
the echoes of his sermon
which freedoms do we value
which we see as a bother
a limit on our excess

Living out the beatitudes
an echo of his life
how our savior walked
how he lived and died for us

Surrendering his station
falling to the earth
walking humbly as a man
that we would have new birth

Living out the beatitudes
humbly in this life
sharing gently his message of love
that all would have new life

“This Sunday my sermon is titled “Pursuing More Than Happiness,”
and it is based on Matthew 5:1-13. If you have a few minutes to read
this passage of scripture prior to attending the service, you might get
a little more out of the sermon. In this sermon, I want to challenge us all
to live with greater intentionality and to find deeper levels of meaning
for our lives. Instant gratification can be the enemy of faithful living.
Intentionality is the path to blessedness.”

Living in Our Freedom

Christ’s word and the Spirit
guiding our steps here
living in our freedom
in the way that God would want

Remembering Christ’s teaching
his sermon on the mount
defining righteous living
in the beatitudes

Words to live by
out from the yoke of the law
guided by the Spirit
answering our savior’s call

Redefining freedom
not of this world
by the lesson of the Christ
who chose to die for us

Guided in Our Freedom

In the words of Christ
in his sermon on that mount
telling us how to live
guided in our freedom

Mindful of our neighbor
in everything we say
in every action of our life
in how we walk on earth

Gently sharing the world
not marching to our own drummer
caring for those near and far
acting like our brother

Looking at the story of Christ
how he walked on the earth
a model for our own days
now that we have his freedom

No longer under the sentence
the yoke of the law
freed by his sacrifice
his going to the cross

This love he shared
giving meaning to his words
instruction for our walk here
sharing his message of love
