His Worthy Praise ‎#86

86. Free in Christ

1 When far from the fold of His love I had wandered,
The Savior of sinners came seeking for me;
E’er ever I knew him he won my heart to him,
And now through his grace, I am happy and free.

Refrain:
Free, free, blessedly free!
Jesus my pardon has spoken;
Free, free, blessedly free!
Satan’s dominion is broken;
From the guilt and pow’r of sin,
Jesus saves and keeps me clean;
For his glory I’ll tell the story,
Praise God I’m free!

2 When I was in bondage to sin and to Satan,
Condemned under God’s righteous sentence to die,
On Calvary’s mountain he purchased my pardon;
My fetters are gone and rejoicing am I. [Refrain]

3 And now unto others, the story I’m telling
Of what he in mercy has done for my soul;
The love that enfolds me, the grace that upholds me,
The chiefest of sinners makes perfectly whole. [Refrain]
