I watched the movie Sound of Freedom and was overwhelmed by the personal sacrifice of one man to keep a promise to a Dad whose two children had been kidnapped into the world of child trafficking. It made me think of the power of one inspired person who believes in a mission or purpose. It made me want to, even more, live out my life purpose.
The movie is about the dark side of the world of child trafficking and how one person can make a difference, sometimes at great cost.
Redemption’s Call
In a world with good and bad
The hearts of some are so unclad
They cause a dearth of righteousness
The bad disrupts the beauty of
The good designed from Heav’n above
The wonder of His love planned out
No longer heard above the shouts
And idle men they shrug it off
With lowered heads, they laugh and scoff
With lack of courage to rise up
They lie around like unused cups
So innocence is thrown aside
Trampled from a moral slide
Yet all it took was love and care
From just one man who was not scared
Oh be that one to those around
Those you see that are not found
Who lie in fear and trembling
Who seek their soul’s assembling
The innocent await our move
And wonder if their hearts’ improve
Beyond the hell where they reside
While we lay still on couches wide
Yet in our hearts is love today
It will emerge to save the day
If only you and I proclaim
With God’s great hand we’ll stake His claim
For truth and love and righteousness
We’ll find the weak to care and bless
Inspired by the movie “Sound of Freedom”
