Ablazing Grace




           Ablazing Grace! How hot the fire
           That stirred a light in me
           I once was mute, but now I speak
           Once was bound, But now I’m free

           How bitter the taste
           of a wretched past


           How dark the place
           of empty souls and lost minds

           Ablazing Grace! How strong the spirit
            that woke the dead in me
           Once I was absent, but now I’m here
           Once was silent, but now I am Here

            To Stand and fight
           for freedom and Love


            To Feel the Fire
           of justice and peace

           Ablazing Grace! How good the fire
           That stirred a light in me
           I once was mute, but now I sing
           Once was bound, But now I’m free


                                                                                                    Rebel Flag Burning, 2015 - John Sims
