Songtexte

[Verse 1]
The sun was beating down inside
The walls of stone and razor wire
As we made our way across the prison yard
I felt my heart begin to race
As we drew nearer to the place
Where they say that death is waiting in the dark
[Verse 2]
The slamming doors of iron echoed through the halls
Where despair holds life within it's cruel claws
[Verse 3]
But then I met a man whose face
Seemed so strangely out of place
A blinding light of hope was shining in his eyes
And with repentance in his voice
He told me of his tragic choice
That led him to this place where he must pay the price
[Verse 4]
But then his voice grew strong as he began to tell
About the one he said had rescued him from hell
[Verse 5]
He said I'm free, yeah
Oh, I have been forgiven
God's love has taken off my chains
And given me these wings
And I'm free, yeah, yeah
And the freedom I've been given
Is something that not even death
Can take away from me
Because I'm free
Jesus set me free
[Verse 6]
We said a prayer and said goodbye
And tears began to fill my eyes
As I step back out into the blinding sun
And even as I drove away
I found that I could not escape
The way he spoke of what the grace of God had done
[Verse 7]
I thought about how sin had sentenced us to die
And how God gave His only Son so you and I
[Verse 8]
Could say I'm free, yeah
Oh, I have been forgiven
God's love has taken off my chains
And given me these wings
And I'm free, yeah, yeah
And the freedom I've been given
Is something that not even death
Can take away from me
Because I'm free
[Verse 9]
And if the Son has set you free
Oh, if the Son has set you free
Then you are free indeed
Oh, you are really free
If the Son has set you free
Oh, if the Son has set you free
Then you are free
Really, really free, oh
[Verse 10]
I'm free, yeah
Oh, we have been forgiven
God's grace has broken every chain
And given us these wings
And we're free, yeah, yeah
And the freedom we've been given
Is something that not even death
Can take  from you and me
Because we're free, yeah
The freedom we've been given
Is something that not even death
Can take from you and me
Because we're free
[Verse 11]
Oh, we're free, yeah, yeah
We are free
We are free, yeah, yeah
[Verse 12]
The Son has us free
(If the Son has set you free)
(You are free indeed)
(If the Son has set you free)
(You are free indeed)
(If the Son has set you free)
(You are free indeed)
(If the Son has set you free)
(You are free indeed)
[Verse 13]
(If the Son has set you free)
(You are free indeed)
(If the Son has set you free)
(You are free indeed)
(If the Son has set you free)
(You are free indeed)
We are free
(If the Son has set you free)
(You are free indeed)
[Verse 14]
If the Son has set you free
You are free indeed
If the Son has set you free
You are free indeed
If the Son has set you free
You are free indeed
If the Son has set you free
You are free indeed
[Verse 15]
If the Son has set you free
You are free indeed
If the Son has set you free
You are free indeed
If the Son has set you free
You are free indeed
If the Son has set you free
You are free indeed
If the Son has set you free
You are free indeed
[Verse 16]
You are free indeed
You are free indeed
Free indeed
Free indeed
