Song Lyrics ~ Let Love Grow ~ The Freedom of Letting Go
(Verse 1)
In the square, beneath the sun’s fierce glare,
Saint Francis stands with his soul laid bare.
Garments pooled, whispers rise,
Father’s fury, but Francis defies.
Stripped of the weight, the chains of gold,
He feels a freedom that can’t be sold.
A soul unbound, a heart set free,
In simplicity, the true self will be.
(Chorus)
Let go, let go of all you hold tight,
Step into the quiet, away from the fight.
Through stillness and trust, the light will show,
In simplicity, the seeds of love grow.
(Verse 2)
Pope Francis walks through halls austere,
With creaking floors and a humble cheer.
No gilded thrones, no grand parade,
Just the hum of engines and choices made.
He waves to the crowds, not from on high,
But close to their hearts, where hope can’t die.
“What do we clutch? What holds us back?
Could letting go fill what we lack?”
(Chorus)
Let go, let go of all you hold tight,
Step into the quiet, away from the fight.
Through stillness and trust, the light will show,
In simplicity, the seeds of love grow.
(Bridge)
In bare feet, Francis found his way,
Through the murmur of doubt, through judgment’s sway.
And Pope Francis whispers, “What will you free?
What weight will you drop to let love be?”
What treasures bind us, what fears remain,
What cluttered riches fuel our pain?
Strip away the ego, the fleeting pride,
Let simplicity be our guide.
(Verse 3)
The morning air, it whispers low,
As Saint Francis lets material go.
A shivering frame, but a burning light,
He steps through darkness into sight.
And Pope Francis rides through crowded streets,
With courage and grace where change meets.
Together they ask of hearts and hands,
What legacy blooms, what love expands?
(Chorus)
Let go, let go of all you hold tight,
Step into the quiet, away from the fight.
Through stillness and trust, the light will show,
In simplicity, the seeds of love grow.
(Outro)
Oh, simplicity, a gift divine,
It frees our hearts, lets love align.
Saint Francis calls, Pope Francis leads,
A path of hope through humble deeds.
Through every murmur, through every glow,
Let go, let go, and let love grow.
