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