Dreaming of freedom

We all have dreams
We all crave freedom
Be it just a simple thing 
Like a few minutes free
We are lost in these lives
We are struggling to cope
Wondering...
"What is left for me?"
"Why am I lost at sea?"
"Where is this freedom?
That was promised me"
Troubles seem to beset us
Troubles come and never go
Until we ask ourselves that question
What am I here for dear Lord?
And why can't I see the sky?
There are clouds all around me
There are tempests everywhere
What am I doing wrong?
Does anybody really care?
Where is this blessed freedom?
Where is this peace that sets us free?

You will find the blessed freedom
You will find the peace you seek
If you turn your eyes upon Jesus
And allow Him into your heart dear
For His lifeblood was given up for thee
