That I Could Still Go Free

That I Could Still Go Free

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

For as long as I know Jesus

I can still go free

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

Yet a man on the cross put me in His will

And said that I could still go free

Now I never could quite understand why a king would want to leave His throne

To don the robe of an earthly man

 Feel the pain of flesh, flesh and bone

Then to later trod that lonely path

That led to Calvary

Where the blood red stains broke all my chains

So that I could still go free
