1 I am now on the altar,
I am now on the altar,
I am now on the altar,
Which was made for me.

Refrain:
Jesus breaks ev’ry fetter,
Jesus breaks ev’ry fetter,
Jesus breaks ev’ry fetter,
And He sets me free.

2 I will ne’er doubt my Savior,
I will ne’er doubt my Savior,
I will ne’er doubt my Savior,
For He cleanses me. [Refrain]

3 I will rest on His promise,
I will rest on His promise,
I will rest on His promise
Which is giv’n to me. [Refrain]

4 I will shout Hallelujah!
I will shout Hallelujah!
I will shout Hallelujah!
For He sets me free. [Refrain]

In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries. Go to person page >
