God Has Set Us Free for Freedom
Music by Ron KlusmeierWords by Fred Kaan
Tune Name: GOLDEN
Lyrics as Poetry
God has set us free for freedom,
for responding “yes” or “no”.
Freedom is our gift and calling,
God has let all people go.
REFRAIN:
Freedom is to people
what air is to the birds.
Freedom is belonging,
breaking bread, sharing words.
Ties of kindred are our bondage:
we the members, God the head.
We are made in God’s own image;
love has made us free indeed.
— Refrain —
God unties our hands for loving
man or woman, children, friends,
caring for the other’s wholeness;
love is kind and understands.
— Refrain —
Human hearts remain in turmoil
till they find their rest in God
who, as source of peace and freedom,
gives us Christ in flesh and blood.
— Refrain —
Give us freedom, God, to serve you,
show us where we ought to go,
never resting till all people’s
cups are full and overflow.
— Refrain —
