Prisoner Set Free

by Marijo Phelps  
3/15/2009 / Poetry

Jesus, You came to visit me
When I was locked within despair
Sin slammed shut the door forever
I was truly a prisoner there


Jesus, again You looked in on me
Touched my infirmity and pain
Brought on by rejecting You
And You turned my heart again


You knocked with importunity
Until I gladly opened wide
To Your cleansing forgiveness
And invited You inside


No longer is life a prison
With my sin sick soul inside
Jesus threw away the chains and bars
Since I choose in Him to abide
