Selah's song "Set Free" is a contemporary Christian anthem celebrating the freedom believers have through Christ's sacrifice and resurrection. The lyrics call for unity among Christians, urging them to forgive one another and live in love rather than conflict. Drawing on the Exodus imagery of "let my people go," the song emphasizes liberation from fear and sin through Jesus' death and rising again. It encourages believers to serve others and make love their labor, so that the world may recognize them by their love. The overall message is one of hope, grace, and the transformative power of God's love.

Brothers and sisters
We're saints and sinners
Why do we live like enemies?
Let's leave our anger
Forgive our debtors
Live like a people set free
Set free, oh, free, oh
The "let my people go" kinda set free
Set free, oh, free, oh
By the love that came and died
Rose again, so we could be
Set free
We know the truth now
His spirit moves now
We are no longer slaves to fear, no-oh
Go serve your neighbor
Make love your labor
Listen up my friends, or don't you hear?
Set free, oh, free, oh
It's the "let my people go" kinda set free
Set free, oh, free, oh
By the love that came and died
Rose again, so we could be
Set free
They can know us by our love
When they see our life in Him
Let them sing, let them see we have been
Set free, we have been set free
Set free
Set free, oh, free, oh
It's the "let my people go" kinda set free
Set free, oh, free, oh
By the love that came and died
Rose again, so we could be
Set free
Set free
Set free
Free
The Let my people go...
Set free
The love that came and died, rose again so we could be
Set free
