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!

Now And Forever He Shall Be Mine.

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;

He Who Has Rent My Fetters In Twain.
