Trapped in bitterness,
can’t break free
reliving the way
things use to be?
Stuck in regret,
can’t shake loose
yesterday sorrows
hang on like a noose?
Trapped in misery,
can’t seem to let go
past disappointments
on your face show?
Paralyzed by resentment,
loathing and disgust
can’t find anything or one
anymore you can trust?
Well don’t let the past,
make you its hostage . . .
instead let Jesus free you
from yesterday’s bondage!
~~~~~~~~~
But thanks be to God,
which giveth us the victory
through our Lord Jesus Christ.
