Chorus / Description : The song I Want To Be Free by Ellie Holcomb expresses a desire to be free from pain, fear, and doubt, and to experience the joy and freedom found in God's presence. Though not explicitly biblical, the lyrics reflect themes of liberation found in Scripture, such as Psalm 118:5-6 and Galatians 5:1.
Roll away this stone
Roll away this sorrow
And take away this pain
That I've been holding on to, yeah
'Cause I want to be
Like the birds all singing in the trees
Oh, Lord, I want to be free
So take away this fear
Take away this doubt and
Let me know that You're here
That You're not going anywhere, yeah
'Cause I want to be
Like the fish all swimming in the sea
Oh, Lord, I want to be free
'Cause I want to be
Like the children playing in the breeze
Oh, Lord, I want to be free
Oh, my Lord, come and set us all free
