This Is How It Feels To Be Free

Verse 1

There's a wall that has been standing

Since the day that Adam fell

Sin is where it started

Sin is why it held

Speaking as a prisoner

Who was there and lived to tell

I remember how it felt

I could hear the sound of freedom

Like a distant voice it called

And beckoned me to follow

Where I had never gone

Though my heart was willing

I just stood there at the wall

Praying somehow it would fall

But in a cross I found a doorway

And a hand that held the keys

When the chains fell at my feet

For the first time I could see

Verse 2

There are days when I'm reminded

Of the prison I was in

Living in a nightmare

Burning from within

I can feel the voice of evil

I can hear the call of sin

But I won't go back again

Once I tasted freedom

Then the walls could bind no more

Since mercy gave me wings to fly

Like an eagle I can soar

Bridge

Somewhere there's a prison

Where the chains still bind

There but for the grace of God

Those walls could still be mine

So for all the captives I say
