Let Freedom Ring

Deep within the heart has always known that there was freedom Somehow breathed into the very soul alive The prisoner, the powerless, the saved have always known it There's something that keeps reaching for the sky Even life begins because a baby fights for freedom And songs we love to sing have freedom's theme Some have walked through fire and flood to find a place of freedom And some faced hell itself for freedom's dream Let freedom ring wherever minds know what it means to be in chains Let freedom ring wherever hearts know pain Let freedom echo through the lonely streets where prisons have no key We can be free and we can sing --- let freedom ring God built freedom into every fiber of creation And He meant for us to all be free and whole When my Lord bought freedom with the blood of His redemption His cross stamped pardon on my very soul I'll sing it out with every breath, I'll let the whole world hear it This hallelujah anthem of the free That iron bars and heavy chains can never hold us captive The Son has made us free and free indeed Let freedom ring down through the ages from a hill called Calvary Let freedom ring wherever hearts know pain Let freedom echo through the lonely streets where prisons have no key You can be free and you can sing let freedom ring Let freedom echo through the lonely streets where prisons have no key You can be free and you can sing let freedom ring You can be free and you can sing --- let freedom ring --- let freedom ring
