Deep within the heart has always known that
there was freedom
Somehow breathed into the very soul of life
The prisoner, the powerless, the slaves have
always known it
There's just something that keeps reaching
for the sky
Even life begins because a baby fights for
freedom
And songs we love to sing have freedom's theme
Some have walked through fire and flood to
find a place of freedom
And some faced hell itself for freedom's dream
Let freedom ring wherever minds know what it
means to be in chains
Let freedom ring wherever hearts know pain
Let freedom echo through the lonely streets
where prisons have no key
We can be free and we can sing --- let
freedom ring
God built freedom into every fiber of
creation
And He meant for us to all be free and whole
When my Lord bought freedom with the blood of
His redemption
His cross stamped pardon on my very soul
And now I'll sing it out with every breath,
I'll let the whole world hear it
This hallelujah anthem of the free
That iron bars and heavy chains can never
hold us captive
The Son has made us free and free indeed
Let freedom ring down through the ages from a
hill called Calvary
Let freedom ring wherever hearts know pain
Let freedom echo through the lonely streets
where prisons have no key
You can be free and you can sing let freedom
ring
Let freedom echo through the lonely streets
where prisons have no key
You can be free and you can sing let freedom
ring
You can be free and you can sing --- let
freedom ring --- let freedom ring
