Gliding across
I see it
The cathedral
A statue that has stood the test of time
For decades
It’s only a small monument to the love
And dedication shown
In its walls
It seems to radiate
Peace and safety
I see the suffering souls
Looking for peace
And finding it
The joy in their hearts
When they find it
When they find love
In the walls of the cathedral
Some look at the glass
And see a cave
They see chains
But my eyes see my freedom
I see my savior looking at me
And I know I’m bought for a price
One I will pay
One that has rescued me
From eternal punishment
Instead of being free
Instead of feeling my current joy
I would be forever condemned
Forever lost
Forever chained
I can’t live with that
I have to be free
But either way I’m chained by losing my soul
To either fire and pain
Or to peace and love
Those are my options
And I have chosen to give my soul to
Peace and love
And I’m glad I did
I approve of my sacrifice
