| Two Types of Spirituality
This is from David Wells' book, Losing our Virtue.
Type 1:
Long my imprisoned spirit lay
Fast bound in sin and nature's night.
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray--
I awoke, the dungeon flamed with light.
My chains fell off. My heart was free.
I rose, went forth and followed Thee.
~Charles Wesley.
Type 2:
I need You to hold me
Like my daddy never could.
And I need You to show me
How resting in Your arms can feel so good.
I need You to Walk with me
Hand in hand we will run and play
And I need You to talk to me
Tell me again and again you'll stay.
~Brenda Lefavre.
