I’m free from the fear of to-mor-row,
I’m free from the guilt of the past,
For I’ve traded my shack-les for a glo-ri-ous song,
I’m free! Praise the Lord! Free at last!
So long I had searched for life’s meaning.
En-slaved by the world and my greed;
Then the door of my pris-on wa o-pened by love,
For the ran-som was paid, I was freed
A special thanks to the staff at Cedar Grove Assisted Living for the care and friendship that was given the last two years.
