[Verse 1]
We all were pris'ners in cells of our own making
Completely guilty, deserving of our chains
But hallelujah, Jesus came a'callin'
Paid the debt we could not pay, and He washed our sins away

[Chorus]
Freedom, sweet freedom
You can feel it shake the ground
Oh, it comes in like a crashing wave
And tears our prisons down
Hear it gettin' louder, the joyful, joyful sound
Freedom, sweet freedom
We're not pris'ners now

[Verse 2]
Who could imagine the mighty reach of mercy
To see the worst in us and still plan our escape
But hallelujah, what a glorious Savior
'Cause nothing stops His power, or His unrelenting grace
And now there's…

[Chorus]
Freedom, sweet freedom
You can feel it shake the ground
Oh, it comes in like a crashing wave
And tears our prisons down
Hear it gettin' louder, the joyful, joyful sound
Freedom, sweet freedom
'Cause we're not pris'ners now, no

[Bridge]
Who the Son sets free is always free indeed
Hallelujah (hallelujah), we're not pris'ners now
Who the Son sets free is always free indeed
Hallelujah, we're not pris'ners now

[Chorus]
Freedom, sweet freedom
You can feel it shake the ground
It comes in like a crashing wave
Tears our prisons down
Hear it gettin' louder, the joyful, joyful sound
Freedom, sweet freedom
We're not pris'ners now, no

[Outro]
Freedom, sweet freedom
'Cause we're not pris'ners now
We're not pris'ners now, no
We're not pris'ners now
We are sons and daughters
