Satan you can’t hold me
Sure, your thugs can beat me and drag me through the mud
You can’t hold me
They can call me every name they can ever think of
You can’t hold me
For I am a child of GOD
I listen to him and him alone
My spirit belongs to GOD
He is the one I must obey
You can not break my will
You can not crush my spirit
It is there for useless to try
For I am GOD’s and GOD’s only
Yes, my spirit belongs to GOD
Therefor I am free
By his power
By his might
So Remember
You can’t chain me with the strongest chain
You can’t bind me with any rope
YOU CAN’T HOLD ME

Why is he Old Nick too? We'll have to apologise to everyone named Nick!
A fine write T. It's said that he himself is on a chain - a very long chain though.
Thank you. Who is Nick?
I did think of 'chain' before I read Candlewitch's comment. Some 'organised religions' can be like chains too, I agree. Some get into a state of 'religiosity' too - rites and rituals, not even knowing what it all means, as they've been doing it so long without thinking.
Thank you, I do agree that there are those religions and faiths out there. That do bind people in spiritural chains.
Good Faith ridden write, God is always there for us all.
Thank You
'Old Nick', a quaint name for the devil - in UK anyway, maybe not in USA.
Also, with being 'unchained' it's a bit like the paradoxes we hear:
'In serving is our freedom'.
Hymn: 'Make me a captive Lord, And then I shall be free'
Thank You
