BREAKING CHAINS

Out on the sea's landscape
Up on the swell's tide glory
I seek the norhward cape
But everywhere wind's screaming

Over the blue-green hills
Across a quilt of fall leaves
I reach to cross Your will
But nowhere are You singing

Down in the valley's calm
Beneath a beam of moonshine
Stuck in Your empty palm
But still my hope is waking

Out on the sea's broad back
Up on Your Christmas morning
I see the sun's dawn break
But Light secures my mooring

Can't fill this empty space
Breaking the chains of my fate
Frozen in death's embrace
But Hope's face twists the turning
