I remember when my life was filled with joy and laughter
And I sang a cheerful song then trouble came
I would try to know the reasons that my life had all gone wrong
But I knew that Jesus loved me so I held on
Even through the doubt and all the fears that I faced
I knew He would never let me down, His love remained
And in my weakness He grew stronger, He gave me hope to still go onward
Now I'm standing here today and I can say
I've been restored to the place I once knew
Regained all that I once held true
The sad times He carried me through
Now life is much better anew
What my future holds is a story yet untold
And though hard times may lie ahead He will not change
So when the seasons, oh they come and go
I can look behind and I'll know that He, He will never ever let me down
Cause I've been restored to the place I once knew
Regained all that I once held true
The sad times He carried me through
Now life is much better anew
I've been restored to the place I once knew
Regained all that I once held true
The sad times He carried me through
Now life is much better anew
I'm free now, I'm free now
He restored me
Oh, I'm free now, I'm free now
Jesus restored me
I'm free
