The judgment of the law
never measuring up
the burden of guilt
heavy on my mind
Hobbled in our walk
the law a stumbling block
reminding me of my sin
my feet made of clay
Freed from the stocks
the chains broken away
Christ came into my life
changing me here today
Each day I awake
rising on eagles’ wings
wanting to share his love
freedom in his grace
that we will truly live.
