Once I Was Bound By Sin’s Galling Fetters,
Chained Like A Slave, I Struggled In Vain;
But I Received A Glorious Freedom,
When Jesus Broke My Fetters In Twain.
Glorious Freedom! Wonderful Freedom!
No More In Chains Of Sin I Repine!
Jesus The Glorious Emancipator—
Now And Forever He Shall Be Mine.
Freedom From All The Carnal Affections,
Freedom From Envy, Hatred And Strife;
Freedom From Vain And Worldly Ambitions,
Freedom From All That Saddened 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 Its Pain;
Freedom In Christ, My Blessed Redeemer,
He Who Has Rent My Fetters In Twain.
