ESCAPING TRAPS

ANOTHER WAY OUT

Life is filled with traps and tricks,

many don't have an instant fix,

but staying where we are brings great danger,

filling our lives with frustration and anger.

When we want to run we find the gate locked,

all the paths and escapes are solidly blocked,

we are blackmailed and threatened to pay our dues,

or we may not proceed with new paths to pursue.

This is when we seek a new master,

helping us out of trouble much faster,

we take the hand of God above,

who guides us through with everlasting love.

We confess our mistakes and receive forgiveness,

plucking us out of the hands of darkness,

we find a new way where the light shines brightly,

escaping the traps of the strong and mighty.
