Baptized and Sanctified

Soaring and chasing
Sifting sand
Time is wasting

Revolve around
Touching sound
Degenerate drowned

Singular senses surround
Slipping dimensions
Clocks unwound

Experience a moment
Take it all in
Feel with your soul
Let it begin

Remove human ceiling
Relinquish demands
Relax and breath easy

Bare feet in clover
Pressure released
Waves washing over

Revival, refreshing
Benefits bring
Basking in blessing

Experience a moment
Take it all in
Feel with your soul
Let yourself win

Forever forgiven
Endless endeavor
Life ever living

Grow, heal, mend
Released from the hound
Unbound unburdened

Rest where you drifted
Fear behind you
Soul uplifted

Experience a moment
Take it all in
Feel with your soul
Let go of sin

Note: This is about the relief and hope I had when I was baptized and set apart for God. Having my old sin nature behind me, drowned in the river, gave me new life and a peace I will never forget. Being forgiven is amazing; being free to NOT sin is liberating.
