Once I was bound by sin's galling fetters,

chain'd like a slave, I struggled in vain,

But I received a glorious freedom,

when Jesus broke my fetters in twain.

Freedom from all the carnal affections,

freedom from envy, hatred and strife;

Freedom from vain and worldly ambitions;

freedom from all that sadden'd my life.

Freedom from pride and all sinful follies,

freedom from love and glitter of gold;

Freedom from evil, temper and anger;

Glorious freedom rapture untold.

Freedom from fear with all of its torments,

freedom from care with all of lots pain;

Freedom in Christ, my blessed Redeemer,

He who has rent my fetters in twain.
