Break Free

Take those shackles off your feet, tell them to set you free
When you have no one to turn to, I’ll find you call on me
Nobody knows our story they weren’t there when it began
Our bond remains unbroken only God knows the plan
In his infinite wisdom God knows no time or space
His power is limitless just ask him for grace

Take those shackles off your feet, tell them to set you free
Break the chains that bind you, if you need help call on me
My passion for you is boundless the way I feel has no expression
I smile in everyone’s face but have endless depression
I feel like I’m on an eternal chase no one understands my battle
I want to get you out of that place so bad it makes my head rattle

Take those shackles off your feet, tell them to set you free
With her you face everlasting defeat, you’re blind and can not see
She came to you from a bottomless pit and there she should return
You are not the first man she’s brought down, she wants to see you burn
Be true to who you are leave her, and  do not walk in shame
Let God lead and you’ll go far don’t forget He Knows Your Name
