Boss, I'm free

Share
You know what I think? Like the old negro said one time, in the slave time. One day, he come around, he said, "You know, the… I'm free now." So he got to telling amongst the other slaves, and the slaves said… And it got back to the owner. And the owner said, "Come in here, Sam." Said, "What's that you're telling amongst the slaves out there?" He said, "Boss, I am free." Said, "How are you free?" He said, "I am free from the law of sin and death, for Jesus Christ has made me free." He said, "Sam, you mean that?" He said, "Yes." Said, "I'll go down and sign your release, and let you go tell your brethren about that." The old man preached for years and years. Finally, one day, he come to his door, he had to part from this life. And while he was laying on his bed, in a coma for a few days, many of his white brethren come along to—to see him, bid him good-bye, because he had been a gallant old soldier for Christ. While he was laying there on the bed, he come to, looked around, and he said, "Mose, aren't you, or…" "Sam, aren't you gone yet?" "No." Said, "I had to come back." He said "I thought I was there." Said, "I—I—I must have dreamed it." Said, "I thought I was there. And when I was standing there," said, "an Angel… I just been taken in the door, and," said, "an Angel come up and said, 'Sam, come get your crown, and come get your robe.'" 153 He said, "Don't talk to me about a crown and robe, just let me stand here and look at Him for a million years." He saw in Him the One that had set him free from sin and death. He saw there the One that stuck to him through thick and thin. O God!
