[C1] I'm free, yeah, oh, I have been forgiven God's love has taken off my chains and given me these wings And I'm free, yeah, yeah, and the freedom I've been given Is something that not even death can take away from me Because I'm free Jesus set me free [V2] We said a prayed and said goodbye and tears began to fill my eyes As I stepped back out into the blinding sun And even as I drove away I found that I could not escape The way he spoke of what the grace of God had done I thought about how sin had sentenced us to die And how God gave His only Son so you and I could say... [C2] And if the Son has set you free, Oh, if the Son has set you free Then you are free indeed, Oh, You are really free If the Son has set you free, Oh, if the Son has set you free Then you are free, really, really free [V3] Oh, we're free, yearh, oh, we have been forgiven God's grace has broken every chain and given us these wings And we're free, yeah, yeah, and the freedom we've been given Is something that not even death can take from you and me Because we're free, yeah, the freedom we've been given Is something that not even death can take from you and me Becayse we're free, oh, we're free We are free, we are free The Son has set us free [T] If the Son has set you free You are free indeed
