It’s gravities pull that holds my body down
My feet firmly held on earth’s shaking ground
Eyes forced to focus on what there is to see
This world’s ghastly scenery that spins in front of me.
Oh, how the heart is tormented by the sight
As the soul aches and longs for the ending to this fight.
But embraced by the truth and caressed by the Spirit
I take comfort in my Father who’s Word declares “DON’T FEAR IT!”
My mind is transported to the heavens above
As the chaos below becomes the reason to love.
It is in this place that I am weightless and free
My thoughts are transformed, my life has clarity.
I may be stuck to this globe, but I’m feeling real high
I’ve discovered the answer and now I know why
It’s with His plan and His purpose I’m alive and I’m living
Floating on the peace and understanding God’s giving
Come, take my hand and I’ll show you the way
To turn the pain of your circumstances into good each day
Released from the chains that ties us all down
You’ll escape from the bondage and go where joy is found
It’s two places at once that you will soon be
But it starts at the cross humbled on one knee
Praise be to the Father, our Savior, the Son
Surrendered and emptied with His Spirit you’re one
For He took on the flesh just to sacrifice it all
Beaten and tortured till death made it’s call
His promise of heaven is for belief, that’s the key
With that faith, comes great power, to DEFY GRAVITY!!!
