Over the last few months I’ve been trying to focus on who I am in Christ. A Google search a while ago found a very useful list of scriptures on
https://joycemeyer.org/ . The list can be found here .

Its been on my heart to write songs based on these scriptures as I explore what they mean for me. Yesterday I spent many hours singing and playing and in time a song emerged which is on its way to being finished.

The key scriptures were:

• I am alive with Christ (Ephesians 2:5).
• I am free from the law of sin and death (Romans 8:2).
• I am far from oppression, and will not live in fear (Isaiah 54:14).

These eventually became lyrics and then a song. The lyrics still need a bit of tidying up but I thought I’d share them here.

I am Alive

I am free from the law of sin and death
The Holy Spirit lives in me
I am dead to my sin and alive in Christ
The Holy Spirit lives in me

I am alive, I am alive, I am Alive!

I am free from my fear, for He’s my peace
The Holy Spirit lives in me
And my trust is in Him, for He is my rock
The Holy spirit lives in me

I am free, I am free, I am free!

For God within me
is greater than he
that is in the world.
