Lord,
You put a song in my heart,
One I hold dear.
It's a sweet melody,
Full love, light, and good cheer.
I want to sing Your melody loud,
So they can hear of Your love
And know You are near.
I sing with joy because I am free.
You broke the chains that bound me
And helped me see.
In my heart I hear You say,
Reach out, My child, reach out.
Take your neighbor's hand
And shine your light for all to see,
This is the way,
This is how you become free.
I will sing of your love and justice; to you, Lord, I will sing praise.
(Psalm 101:1)
