I Will Not Be Silent © 2008 NKB
My child, don't ask me to be silent
And allow you to get hurt
When I see the danger you are in
My child don't ask me to be silent
When I see those who would harm you
Masquerading as fun companions
I will not be silent
And let you continue down a road
That leads to death
When love will set you free
I will not be silent
Allowing lies to be spoken as truth
When the truth will set you free
I will not be silent
As I watch you struggle with pain
As I watch you struggle with death
As I watch your freedom to choose
Be taken away by those who say,
"You have no choice, you were born this way"
I will speak out in love in my actions
I will speak life and truth
I will show you the Father's love for you
His heart that is waiting for you
To be open to receive His love
I will not be silent
My beliefs are mine and if they disagree with yours
Do we not BOTH have the right to free speech?
Or is free speech only available to those who agree with you?
I will not be silenced by your freedom at the expense of mine
I will not keep silent watching as people hurt one another
I will not keep silent when by speaking I can release life
I will not keep silent when I see any person
physically abuse another
I will not keep silent when I see any person
verbally abuse another
I will not keep silent and make agreement with things
I find hurtful to another in body, mind or soul
I will not keep silent to go along with the crowd
I will not be silent and allow my opinion to have no voice
I will not be silent and allow my children not to have a choice
I will not keep silent as I watch the thought police gaining strength
I will not keep silent as you take away my freedom
by imposing your freedom on me and my children
I will not be silent
If are all free to live as we choose then I should be free
to disagree with your choices
Freedom allows us to agree to disagree
Freedom allows us to live peaceably though we disagree
My prayer is always for you to find love, to know love
To experience the eternal love the Father has just for you.
My prayer is for you to find your dreams come true
Your destiny to be fulfilled
For you to find absolute peace
And that you choose to accept it as the gift it is
