Once like a bird in prison i dwelt
No freedom from my sorrow i felt
Then jesus came and listen to me
And glory to god he set me free
He set me free yes he set me free
He broke the bonds of prison for me
I'm glory bond my jesus to see
For glory to god he set me free
Now i am climbing higher each day
Darkness of night has drifted away
My feet are planted on higher ground
And glory to god i'm homeward bound
(repeat)
Goodbye to sin and things that confound
Not of this world shall turn me around
Daily i'm working i'm praying too
And glory to god i'm going through
(repeat)
