My friend and past Light Project student who graduated with his FdA in community evangelism a couple of years back now heads up an initiative charity called Street Light Project.  It’s a community based skate park, cafe and a place to show and share the good news of Jesus.  He commissioned me to do a painting based on the words from the song by Bethel worship called No Longer Slaves. 

You unravel me, with a melody

You surround me with a song

Of deliverance, from my enemies

Till all my fears are gone


I’m no longer a slave to fear

I am a child of God 

From my mothers womb

You have chosen me

Love has called my name

I’ve been born again, into your family

Your blood flows through my veins


I’m no longer a slave to fear

I am a child of God

I’m no longer a slave to fear

I am a child of God

I’m no longer a slave to fear

I am a child of God

I’m no longer a slave to fear

I am a child of God

I am surrounded by the arms of the Father 

I am surrounded by songs of deliverance 

We’ll be liberated from our bondage

We’re the sons and the daughters

Let us sing our freedom


ohh. ohh. ohh.


You split the sea

So I could walk right through it

All my fears were drowned in perfect love

You rescued me

So I could stand and sing

I am a child of God


You split the sea

So I could walk right through it

All my fears were drowned in perfect love

You rescued me

So I could stand and sing

I am a child of God

Here is the result of that commission with some close up’s to get a feel for the depth of the paint and texture.
