Lord, in you is the
Spirit, and where the Spirit is,
there is freedom; Lord,
make us free.
Set us free us from
our hard hearts, free to listen
to other people and
especially to you.
Free us from
subjugation to our possessions,
free to follow where
you lead.
Then with shouts of
joy we will come home,
carrying our sheaves
to you.
