Free
Darwin Hobbs Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Free, free from my past, free from the pain
Free from the guilt that would cause me to be ashamed
Once, once I was blind but now I see clearly
The debt that I owe, Jesus paid for me
No more chains are binding me, I'm totally free

Even my human desires, desire to crucify my soul
Could not await the, the fact that You made me whole
Time after time, I remind myself that Your mercies each day are new
Help me, oh Lord, to establish and know that at Calvary I was redeemed

Free, free from my past, free from the pain
Free from the guilt that would cause me to be ashamed
Once, once I was blind but now I see clearly
The debt that I owe, Jesus paid for me
No more chains are binding me, I'm totally free

Even though I was a sinner
You commended Your grace and Your love toward me
Saved me from death and destruction
Gave me life eternally

Not after my sins have You dealt with me, Lord
I'm so grateful for all You do
Iniquity doesn't take my reward
You still love me and tell I am Your own

Free, free from my past, free from the pain
Free from the guilt that would cause me to be ashamed
Once, once I was blind but now I see clearly
The debt that I owe, Jesus paid for me
No more chains are binding me, I'm totally free

Free, free from my past, free from the pain
Free from the guilt that would cause me to be ashamed
Once, once I was blind but now I see clearly




The debt that I owe, Jesus paid for me
No more chains are binding me, I'm totally free

on Heal the Land

(Chorus)

(Oh!
If my people
Who are called
By my name would
Humbly pray
Seek my face and change
their ways
I'll heal the land)

Oh!

Let's talk about the problems
Please tell me how we solve them
There has to be a brighter day.

Ohhhh!

On your mark, get set, let's go now
Lights, Camera, Action showed now
Seems like this is what we've become
What do we do, Ohhhhh

(Chorus)

(Oh!
If my people
Who are called
By my name would
Humbly pray
Seek my face and change
their ways
I'll heal the land
Oh!)

We've got to find our way back
To the idea that we first had
Somehow we've gone and lost our way

Ohhhh

Wake up and smell the brew now
Make this our finest hour
All faces turn into the ground
This is the answer!

(Chorus)

(Oh!
If my people
Who are called
By my name would
Humbly pray
Seek my face and change
their ways
I'll heal the land)

Why? Oh Why?
is the question, tell me.
Who will stand?
Wanna know how did we end up here?
Or when will it end?
Lord, tell me where do we go from hereee?

(Chorus)

(Oh!
If my people
Who are called
By my name would
Humbly pray
Seek my face and change
their ways
I'll heal the land)

Oh OH Oh OH Oh OHhhh (8x)

HEAL THE LAND!
Pray, seek my face!

(Chorus)

(Oh!
If my people
Who are called
By my name would
Humbly pray
Seek my face and change
their ways
I'll heal the land)
