Acappella Set Me Free song lyrics

I was alone and imprisoned within my cell

Because of how I had lived, I had approached the gates of hell.

Then your light comes shining through

There's nothing better you could ever do

Release me by the power in your hand

Chorus:

Set Me Free (x2)

Only you can let it be

Set Me Free (x2)

Standing speechless, I was trying hard to figure out

How your love had saved me and taken away my doubt

Then I fall down on my knees

All I can tell you is I want to please

My Lord, My God, My Savior shine on Me

Repeat Chorus

Set me free from my desires

Set me free from my foolish pride

Set me free from all my selfish thoughts and ways

By the power that's within you

Only you can loose the chains

And deliver me to more fulfilling days

Repeat Chorus twice

Set me free (x4)

Free from the shackles of the people that tie me

All the crippling traditions of the past that enslave and then blind me

Lord, set me free to really know my brother

Set us free to love and honor one another

I said I wanna be free enough to openly express my feelings

Gotta be free if we wanna be receiving any healing

Free as a bird to fly away

Free as the sun to greet a brand new day

Free as the stars up in the sky

Free as the future in a baby's eye

Free to see as far as you can see

Free to be as much as you can be
