Let Freedom Ring
Joni Lamb & The Daystar Singers & Band Lyrics

Deep within the heart has always known that there was freedom
The desire for freedom is ingrained in every human.

Somehow breathed into the very soul of life
This desire for freedom is an essential part of what it means to be alive.

The prisoner, the powerless, the slave have always known it
Those who are denied their freedom understand its value more than anyone else.

There's something that keeps reaching for the sky
The human spirit constantly longs for freedom and will aspire to it through any obstacle.

And even life begins because a baby fights for freedom
Even in birth, the struggle for autonomy and liberty is already present.

And songs we love to sing have freedom's theme
As a society, our culture and creativity are intertwined with the idea of freedom.

Some have walked through fire and flood to find a place of freedom
People throughout history have fought and endured hardships to achieve liberation.

And some faced hell itself for freedom's dream
Some individuals have suffered unspeakable horrors in order to realize their freedom.

Let freedom ring wherever minds know what it means to be in chains
May the message of freedom resonate wherever people experience oppression.

Let freedom ring wherever hearts know pain
May those who have felt the agony of oppression also experience the joy of liberation.

Let freedom echo through the lonely streets where prisons have no key
May the power of freedom be felt in places where even the physical barriers of captivity cannot contain it.

We can be free and we can sing, let freedom ring
May we all celebrate our shared right to freedom and express that celebration however we choose.

God built freedom into every fiber of creation
The very fabric of the universe reflects the value of liberty.

And He meant for us to all be free and whole
Freedom is not a privilege for a select few, but a basic right for all humanity.

When my Lord bought freedom with the blood of His redemption
The ultimate price for freedom was paid through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

His cross stamped pardon on my very soul
Through faith in Christ, we are granted forgiveness and released from the bondage of sin.

I'll sing it out with every breath, I'll let the whole world hear it
As recipients of this freedom, we should proclaim it boldly and joyfully to all people.

This hallelujah anthem of the free
Our exultation for freedom should be a universal chorus of praise.

That iron bars and heavy chains can never hold us captive
No physical constraint or injustice can permanently impede the human spirit's pursuit of liberty.

The Son has made us free and free indeed
Through Christ's sacrifice, we are set free both spiritually and physically.

Let freedom ring down through the ages from a hill called Calvary
The lasting impact of Christ's sacrifice echoes throughout history as a testament to the value of human freedom.

You can be free and you can sing let freedom ring
Every individual can experience and celebrate their own freedom.

Let freedom echo through the lonely streets where prisons have no key
Even in the most desperate of situations, the hope and joy of freedom can bring comfort and resilience.

You can be free and you can sing let freedom ring
Freedom is not just a gift, but a responsibility to be celebrated and shared with others.

You can be free and you can sing, let freedom ring, let freedom ring
Let the message of freedom reverberate throughout our lives and throughout the world.
