Verse one:
Lock me up in a prison,
and throw away the key;
Take away the vision,
From these eyes that now,
Now can see.
Deprive me of the food I eat,
And even bind my hands and feet;
But as long as I have Jesus…
Then I can still go free.
Chorus:
That I could still go free…
What kind of man,
Would reach down his hand,
And do this for me?
Unworthy to live,
And not fit to kill;
But a man on the cross,
Put me in His will,
and said that I
Could still go free.
Verse two:
Now I never could
Quite understand,
Why a king
Would leave His throne.
To dawn the robe
Of an earthly man,
Feel the pain of flesh,
Flesh and bone.
Then to later trod,
Trod that lonely path,
That lead to Calvary;
Where the blood red stains,
Broke all my chains…
So that I could still go free.
(repeat chorus)
