A Captives Prayer
December 8, 2012
Freedom is ever such a fleeting thing
Find me now and hope please bring
I'm nothing but a shadow now
No longer a silver diadem on my brow
Take me to a new-found savior
Who methinks in infinitely braver
Take me to some sunny lands
Save me from these harsh hands
Take me to a place where I can roam
Or better yet take me home
Take me to the hills of my birth
Not to where I will have to prove my worth
Save me from this cold hard stone
So I will never be alone
