Thank You for the cross Lord 

Thank for the price that You paid 

Thank You that You came 

That we might have life abundantly 

You paid the ransom 

That we might be free 


We are no longer bound 

We have been redeemed 

We are no longer bound 

We have been redeemed 


(repeat from top) 


By Your blood by Your grace 

We have been redeemed 

By Your blood by Your grace 

We have been redeemed 


We are the chosen generation 

You have called us out of darkness 

We are the chosen generation 

You have called us out of darkness 

... 

We are the light of the world 

We are the chosen generation 

You have called us out of darkness  

We are the salt of the world 

We are the chosen generation 

You have called us out of darkness 


We are no longer bound 

We have been redeemed 

By Your blood by Your grace 

We have been redeemed
