This Is How It Feels to Be Free

Phillips Craig And Dean · Where Strength Begins [1997]

There is a wall that has been standing

Since the day that Adam fell

Sin is where it started

And Sin is why it held

Speakin as a prisoner

Who was there and lived to tell

I remember how it fell



I can here the sound of freedom

Like a distant voice who called

And beckon me to follow

Where I had never gone

And though my heart is willin'

I just stood there at the wall

Prayin somehow it would fall



But in a cross I found a doorway

And a hand that held a key

And when the chains fell at my feet

For the first time I could see



Chorus:

This is how it feels to be free

This is what it means to know that

I am forgiven

This is how it feels to be free

To see that life can be more than i imagined

This is how it feels to be free

This is how it feels to be free Yeahhh!



There are days when I'm reminded

Of the prison I was in

Like a livin nightmare

Burning from within

I can feel the voice of evil

I can hear the call of sin

But I wont go back again



See, once I've tasted freedom

Then the walls could bind no more

Since mercy gave me wings to fly

Like an eagle I can soar



repeat chorus



Somewhere there's a prison

Where the chains still burn

If not for the grace of god

Those walls could still be mine

So far all the captives are saved



repeat chorus
