I'm letting every wall come down
All my sin and shame
Washed away by grace

You take my heart and make it new
The old has passed away
You restored my faith
There is power in Your name

You break Every Chain
You keep all Your promises
I stand on Your Word God
In trials that I face

You stay the same
You keep all Your promises
I stand on Your Word God
You break Every Chain

When I am weak You are the one
Always reminding me
I have the victory
Your Word is more than just enough
My ransom has been paid
You declared the way

There is power in Your name

You break Every Chain
You keep all Your promises
