The first step to freedom; A difficult task
Can only be taken if you lower the masks
That hide all the shame, the pain, and the fears
Held deep down inside you for so many years.

Do you think that you're ready to take that first step?
The first step to freedom; to life at its best
It may seem so easy, so simple a test
To let go of deception; to let go of the rest.

Step One - to admit, to surrender, to dare
To face who you are and openly share
The person within with all those who care
Family and friends; the support that is there.

Honesty, hard work and prayer will prevail
In achieving a victory clean
Over denial and self pity, anger and fear
If openness, willingness and acceptance appear.

So hold out your hand and patiently wait
For the moment you enter into God's loving gate
One step at a time, for it is never too late
To walk into freedom; to determine your fate.

Once this step has been taken, and freedom you find
Hold tightly the promise of a life so divine
Not a life of perfection, please keep this in mind
But a life through good choices,
Has gained peace of mind.
