She sits at the foot of the cross Praising her gain but counting her loss She hides what she fears, and fears what she hides She clings to it tightly seeking compromise Fear of the future and fear of the past She clings to what's fleeting, but knows exactly what lasts See, in this life when she looses she'll gain But only if she turns and runs from restrains Taking each thought captive in the name of the Spirit And knowing the flesh the first time she hears it Let go of her fear, her fear to obey And be ready to accept whatever God brings her way Once she surrenders, there's still trial and pain But she'll endure it with joy, because only freedom remains.
