So long, I had searched for life’s meaning
Enslaved by the world and my greed
Then the door of my prison was opened by love
For the ransom was paid, I was freed
I’m free from the fear of tomorrow
I’m free from the guilt of my 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 the dull empty life, I’m set free
For when I met Jesus he made me complete,
He forgot the foolish man I used to be
I’m free from the fear of tomorrow
I’m free from the guilt of my past
For I’ve traded my shackles for a glorious song
I’m free! Praise the Lord, free at last!
