YOU CAN BE FREE

Verse 1: Lookin’ in your own house from the outside
All the time you’re thinkin’ it just wasn’t s’pposed to be like this
Somewhere in the livin’ seems your hope died
And no amount of wishing wanting praying seems to help one bit

Verse 2: There remains a big fight on the inside
Can’t seem to do what’s right can’t seem to stop what you don’t want to do
Circumstances say to run, go hide
But you hold on to one small hope that somehow sometime

Chorus: You can be free, you can be free
Though it may be so hard for you to believe...


You can be free, you can be free
You can be free, you can be free
There is a place you thought you’d never see
Just over the hill through the dark valley
You can be free

Verse 3: Ev’rybody does a little straying
Testing out the bound’ries is a thing that we all seem to want to do
We fail to see the freedom in obeying
When all along we build our own walls only to find no way through

Verse 4: There is One who was tempted just as we are
He knows our feelings, dreams our dreamings, hears our laughter, shares our pain
He’s right beside though we stray far
And patiently with mercy He is waiting



Bridge: Caught in a web of the past
In truth you’re slippin’ fast
Seems to be no way out no returnin’
Things going from bad to worse, is this some kind of curse?
But deep in your heart there’s a cry there’s a longing to be…

Chorus: Free, You can be free
How do I know? Because it’s happened to me
You can be free, You can be free.
You can be free, You can be free.
There is a place you thought you’d never see
Just over the hills through the dark valley
You can be free.
