I’ve been wondering on a broken road
Bruised and battered, lift a heavy load
So much sorrow that I can’t let go
Bound in my shame hard like a stone
And now I find You on this broken way
Worn and wounded, ‘neath a world of weight
So much mercy written on Your face
You saw me here and took my place
And this is freedom, this is freedom
This is freedom, nailed to a tree

Now these shackles that have held me down
Are unleashed by thorn and crown
Sweet forgiveness pouring from your brow
Your life for mine, no greater love
And this is freedom, this is freedom
This is freedom, nailed to a tree
And this is freedom, oh blessed freedom
This is freedom, You died for me

Now from the ashes is beauty raised
Out of darkness comes light of day
My hands lifted from these broken chains
Hallelujah!
And this is freedom, this is freedom
This is freedom, you rose for me
And this is freedom, oh blessed freedom
This is freedom for eternity
