So long I searched for life’s meaning
Enslaved by the world and my greed
Then the door of my prison was opened by light
For the ransom was paid I was freed
I’m free from the fear of tomorrow
I’m free from the guilt of my past
I’ve traded my shackles for a glorious song
I’m free, praise the Lord
Free at last!
I’m free from the burdens I carried
From the dull, empty life I was set free
For when I met Jesus
He made me complete
He forgot the foolish child I used to be
