The Truth Shall Set You Free

I told a great lie in my time
Should I tell the truth to be free
Politicans lie all the time when in a bind
When truth comes out are they free?
Tell a lie and then the truth
If you are free we will see

What set me free in this sinful world?
It was knowledge 
A nugget of gold not found in the ground
The truth is not about a lie
It's knowing the true God by and by
A world filled with god's to the brim
The truth set me free
When I found him you see
