I'm Free

John 8:36
"If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed."

          So long I had searched for life's meaning,
          Enslaved by the world and my greed;
          Then the door of the prison was opened by love,
          For the ransom was paid - I was free.

            Refrain
            I'm free from the fear of tomorrow,
            I'm free from the guilt of the past;
            For I've traded my shackles for a glorious song,
            I'm Free!  Praise the Lord!  Free at last!

          I'm free from the guilt that I carried,
          From that dull empty life I'm set free;
          For when I met Jesus, He made me complete,
          He forgot how foolish I used to be.

            Refrain
            I'm free from the fear of tomorrow,
            I'm free from the guilt of the past;
            For I've traded my shackles for a glorious song,
            I'm Free!  Praise the Lord!  Free at last!

            I'm free from the fear of tomorrow,
            I'm free from the guilt of the past;
            For I've traded my shackles for a glorious song,
            I'm Free!  Praise the Lord!  Free at last!
            I'm Free!  Praise the Lord!  Free at last!
