Fallen Chains Poem by Lehlohonolo Selai

Fallen are the chains
Swifter than drops of rain
Yet bigger in that moment of pain
Fallen are the chains

Fallen are the chains
By a cross so rugged in a glimpse
Yet with power too awesome to be gauged
Fallen are the chains

Fallen are the chains
At the rising of lamb in grace
And a son worthy of all praise
Oh chains you had no clue

Fallen are you chains
Engulfed by nothing but utter shame
Engulfed by pure defeat
Fallen you are

Hello world, freedom has come
With an appearance so dazzling
And glory for a crown sparkling about
Hello world, chains are loose

Fallen are the chains
For in Bethlehem a saviour arose
Robbed in godliness
And heavily armed with faith

Fallen are the chains
For at Calvary a score was settled
By a warrior crowned with thorns then
Fallen are the chains

Mercy reigns, truth remains
Freedom is here far from the chains
Freedom is Jesus the saviour
Fallen are the chains
