This Is How It Feels To Be Free

There is a wall that has been standing since the day that Adam fell Sin is where it started and sin is why it held Speakin’ as a prisoner who was there and lived to tell I remember how it fell I can hear the sound of freedom like a distant voice who called And beckon me to follow where I had never gone And though my heart is willin’, I just stood there at the wall Prayin’ somehow it would fall But in a cross I found a doorway and a hand that held a key And when the chains fell at my feet, for the first time I could see This is how it feels to be free This is what it means to know that I am forgiven This is how it feels to be free To see that life can be more that I imagined This is how it feels to be free This is how it feels to be free, yeah There are days when I’m reminded of the prison I was in Like a livin’ nightmare burning deep within I can feel the voice of evil, I can hear the call of sin But I won’t go back again See, once I’ve tasted freedom then the chains could bind no more Since mercy gave me wings to fly like an eagle I can soar This is how it feels to be free This is what it means to know that I am forgiven This is how it feels to be free To see that life can be more that I imagined This is how it feels to be free This is how it feels to be free, yeah Somewhere there’s a prison where the chains still burn If not for the grace of God those walls could still be mine So far all the captives are saved This is how it feels to be free This is what it means to know that I am forgiven This is how it feels to be free To see that life can be more that I imagined This is how it feels to be free This is how it feels to be free This is what it means to know that I am forgiven This is how it feels to be free To see that life can be more that I imagined This is how it feels to be free This is how it feels to be free, yeah This is how it feels to be free
