He Made Me Free Lyrics

HE MADE ME FREE

(Darrell Edwards)

« © '62 Peer International »



I had drifted for so long with my life so full of wrong

That the Lord should have turned his back on me

But he took the trembling hand of a lost and lonely man

Broke the chains from mortal shame and made me free

Yes he took away the sin from my soul where it had been

And he helped my blinding eyes again to see

Yes and now I understand the beauty of salvation's plan

Out on the cross you paid the cost and made me free

I had sunk so deep in shame never calling on his name

All the joys of life had turned to misery

But then he gave me back control of my lost and wandering soul

Removed the fears dried my tears and made me free

Yes he took away the sin that had stained me deep within

And he gave me back the fate that I might see

Now I'm so glad I understand the promise of salvation's plan

Out on the cross you paid the cost and made me free
