Locked inside this cell of flesh I sat awaiting an eminent death The fruitful labor of my sin Had brought me to what I knew would be my end Well I had a debt I couldn't pay You paid a debt you didn't owe You gave your life for me that day So freedom I could know Set me free From the chains that bound me to my sin Set me free From this life that I've been livin' Set me free There has never been a time When your mercy did not find me. Tangled up in all my sin And then so faithfully unwind me. But just before I slipped away You heard me when I called your name There'll never be a day When you won't come and Set me free From the chains that bound me to my sin Set me free From this life that I've been livin' Set me free You are the author and the finisher of the faith in me I know that I trust in you to come and Set me free From the chains that bound me to my sin Set me free From this life that I've been livin' Set me free Come and set me free Won't you set me free Come and set me free
