“It was like a dream come true when you freed us from our bondage and brought us back to Zion!”-Psalm 126:1 (The Passion Translation)

How many are yearning for this dream to come true?

Immigrants seeking safety in the land of so called freedom.

Friends of different nationalities afraid to leave their houses because of the color of their skin.

Nonsense walls being built by leaders who think walls and division are the answer.

My heart is bursting with so much anger.

Why?

Why can’t we seek freedom? Seek peace for all God’s beloved?

A child born in a meager manger 

To bring hope to all God’s children.

A holy child who unbinds the chains 

and sets us free

by his life, death, and resurrection.

In our broken world

I cry out

Messiah,

Stir up your power

And set the world free!
