Birds should live to be free
Never lock them in a cage
Birds should live to be free
A bird should never be caged
God made them to be free
their wings are built for distance
their song is meant to be heard
The sky was drawn wide open
the trees were shaped for rest
the sun was made to greet them
the night to cradle their nests
A cage is made of sorrow
it steals the breath of flight
it silences the morning call
and breaks the joy of night
A bird is not for keeping
not for chains or idle hands
they carry in their feathers
the secrets of all lands
To watch them rise is holy
to see them cut through air
to hear them call at daybreak
is proof that God is there
A bird should never be caged
not clipped, not locked, not still
for freedom is their purpose
and freedom is God’s will
