Song Lyrics

The son has set us free, the sun was beating down inside the walls of stone and razor wire, jesus set me free
Where despair holds life within it s cruel claws, i have been forgiven, where they say that death is waiting in the dark
i have been forgiven
And the freedom we ve been given, the way he spoke of what the grace of god had done
as we made our way across the prison yard
God s grace has broken every chain and given us these wings, as we made our way across the prison yard
That led him to this place where he must pay the price, a blinding light of hope was shining in his eyes
The sun was beating down inside the walls of stone and razor wire, is something that not even death can take away from me because i m free

The way he spoke of what the grace of god had done, that led him to this place where he must pay the price, then you are free
then you are free indeed
we said a prayer and said goodbye and tears began to fill my eyes
Where despair holds life within it s cruel claws, and the freedom we ve been given Steven, and with repentance in his voice he told me of his tragic choice
I thought about how sin had sentenced us to die, then you are free indeed
We have been forgiven, the freedom we ve been given Chapman, you are really free
the way he spoke of what the grace of god had done
we said a prayer and said goodbye and tears began to fill my eyes

and how god gave his only son so you and i could say
and we re free
God s love has taken off my chains and given me these wings, and how god gave his only son so you and i could say
Where they say that death is waiting in the dark, is something that not even death can take from you and me because we re free, the son has set us free
If the son has set you free, where despair holds life within it s cruel claws
and the freedom we ve been given
The way he spoke of what the grace of god had done, we said a prayer and said goodbye and tears began to fill my eyes
and even as i drove away i found that i could not escape

Where they say that death is waiting in the dark, the slamming doors of iron echoed through the halls Chapman, then you are free
That led him to this place where he must pay the price, if the son has set you free
if the son has set you free
And we re free, we have been forgiven
but then i met a man who s face seemed so strangely out of place
As i stepped back out into the blinding sun, and the freedom i ve been given Steven, i felt my heart begin to race as we drew nearer to the place
And even as i drove away i found that i could not escape, where despair holds life within it s cruel claws
And if the son has set you free, is something that not even death can take away from me because i m free

and how god gave his only son so you and i could say
You are really free, a blinding light of hope was shining in his eyes
I have been forgiven, is something that not even death can take from you and me because we re free, the son has set us free
you are really free
and i m free
A blinding light of hope was shining in his eyes, you are really free
