Once you were dead,
Now you are alive,
Make sweet melodies to Him,
He who has set you free,
His name is Jesus Christ.
From eternity to eternity,
A man without a race,
A man with only future,
From His mouth comes redemption
He gives life to dry bones.
Once you were not a people,
But now in his name you're saved,
Proclaim His name to nations
Sing unto Jesus the Saviour of mankind,
He who forms the mountains and seas.
I know Him by myself,
For He first loved me in my sins,
While I was still a sinner,
Jesus set me free and free indeed
Go and tell my enemies I am free
I was born poor into this world
But now I am full and rich,
For His precious blood has washed me clean
To inheritance that cannot fade away
For all things belongs Him.
From captivity to freedom
Iam a testimony the world's looking for
From miserable life to a divine message
He stood in my place and died for me
Oh death where is your sting?
Wipe tears my dear precious people
Render your hearts before him
For He's the Great Physician who heals
He binds broken hearts with his word
He revives nations after three days
Once you were lost in sins
Now you have been found in salvation
Be fruitful and multiply in His name
For He's glorified that you bear fruits
Justice and righteousness reigns with Him.
Some were fugitives on foreign land
He made them owners of heavenly treasures
By his stripes He brought healing
He abides in me forever amen
Tell my brothers and sisters I am free indeed.
He's not far from us dear saints
We worship Him because His Name is near
Cast down every doubt and fear
For the missiles of hell have been quenched
Stand in the Lord and let devil flee from you
Open the womb of a barren woman
For the world is waiting for the next Apostle
Let closed destinies splash open
The fountains of Life break loose
For the King of kings is coming back
Walk like free people
For you have been redeemed from High
Repent and call upon his name
Cast your heavy burdens unto Him
For He sets free, free indeed

Amen.
Good write S.
I might be able to set this to a hymn tune, if you wish, though bit tricky with 5-line stanzas. Might be easier with an even-numbered line stanzas.
Please do so ... Even if it will involve editing.. I will appreciate 🙏
