Sitting in my prison clothes
Staring at the fence and wire
Feeling like I’ve reached the end;
Lord, Heaven couldn’t feel much higher.
But as I look up, searching for You,
The picture’s now suddenly clear—
I am freer than I’ve ever been
And in this valley I need not fear.
I’m free from the same I lived,
Free from the chains on me.
I’m free from the prison of sin,
Free from who I used to be.
Finally free! Yeah, I’m finally free.
Oh Lord, I’m finally free.
Even though I face this time,
Even though I’ve lost these years,
Even though my heart is hurting,
I will not hide behind my tears.
My life is no longer my own
SO I will run on in this race—
Thankful for my brand new start,
The results of His amazing grace.
I’m confined to this prison cell
A story on my heart to tell.
The chains have fallen off my soul
His love filled me and made me whole.
I’m free from the shame I lived,
Free from the chains on me.
I’m free from the prison of sin,
Free from who I used to be.
Finally free! Yeah, I’m finally free.
Oh Lord, I’m finally free.
Because He loved me, I’m finally free.
