Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
The cross is my memory of when I first believed
My struggle with sin and shame so real
Condemned for breaking God's holy law
Death was my destiny
Until I gave my life and You set me free
Free from my past, free from my guilt
Free from the chains that held me fast
Now I can sing, now I can dance
'Cause Jesus has given me this chance
I will throw my hands up, start to dance
Don't be ashamed, this is your chance
Give Him all the praise, our God is holy
I will throw my hands up, start to dance
Don't be ashamed, this is your chance
Give Him all the praise, our God is holy
Free from my past, free from my guilt
Free from the chains that held me fast
Now I can sing, now I can dance
Jesus has given me this chance
He's forgiven me
Changed I will be
My heart, it can't explain the things you've done for me
The things you've done for me
That dirty life of sin
No one would draw me in
Your blood has washed me clean
I could never leave again
I could never leave again
Free from my past, free from my guilt
Free from the chains that held me fast
Now I can sing, now I can dance
Jesus has given me this chance
He's taken my past
He's taken my guilt
He's taken the chains that held us back
And now we can sing
Now we can dance
'Cause Jesus has given us this chance
He's taken my past
I know, I know
He's taken my past
