He sets You Free

Sakwa Franc

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

    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.
