Set Me Free

Lord knows I've been running
And it feels like I'm about to fall
But they won't stop coming
Until they come and they take us all

So won't you hear my cry or just let me die
There's no light in a life like this
They got the devil in their eyes with their sin disguised
Lord end our suffering

And set me free
You can try to chain this body but you cannot chain my soul
Set me free
You can go and chase your money but my spirit you will never own
Set me free
I've been fighting so damn long and my body it feels so weak
But one day I'll look up and those sweet chariots swinging low will be what I see

Lord knows I've been living
Inside these walls my whole life

But they still won't listen
Even when the dark is brought to light

So won't you hear my voice, I had no choice
Now my own youth disappears
Don't let me hate like the men I face
Lord show me that you're here

And set me free
You can try to chain this body but you cannot chain my soul
Set me free
You can go and chase your money but my spirit you will never own
Set me free
I've been fighting so damn long and my body it feels so weak
But one day I'll look up and those sweet chariots swinging low will be what I see

So don't tell me the dark has passed when it's clear I still can't breathe
And don't tell me the morning's come when blood pours over me

And set me free
You can try to chain this body but you cannot chain my soul
Set me free
You can go and chase your money but my spirit you will never own
Set me free
I've been fighting so damn long and my body it feels so weak
But one day I'll look up and those sweet chariots swinging low will be what I see
