Reflection of Glory

My prior home was a sin-locked prison.
I was set free because Jesus is risen.
Saved from the depths in an instant,
Redeemed in a flash with my consent.
A gift for me to accept, receive in full,
To be cleansed, white as lamb's wool;
Released to pursue His flawless plan,
Finishing the work He cast and began.
To journey with Jesus, my decision,
A change in passion, a new vision.
Free to spread His word to all lands,
Making followers to be Jesus' hands.
This is my desire--my life-long mission--
Following the Spirit, it's my ambition.
Living out this new life I've received,
Growing in Christ, no longer deceived.

Life quakes, ground shakes, shackles break,
The chains are off, now I am free.
I was in prison, but Jesus heard my plea.
Now I am free and I run the race
Through time and space.
I am covered by His grace.

I am consumed by unmerited grace,
Righteousness, now the proof in my case.
Freedom to dance, freedom to praise,
Prepared to bless the Lord all of my days.
Filled by the Holy Spirit, in His presence,
The power of His perfect love is intense.
Of all my strength, He's the only source;
Through my veins, my Jesus is the force.
Flooded by mercy, overcome by love,
Redeemed, adopted by the Lord above.
I was locked up, the key thrown away;
That was changed--Jesus came to stay.
I am free, shackles have been broken.
Chains destroyed by His words spoken.
Free from prison, ready to run the race,
Pressing on, I am covered by His grace.

Life quakes, ground shakes, shackles break,
The chains are off, now I am free.
I was in prison, but Jesus heard my plea.
Now I am free and I run the race
Through time and space.
I am covered by His grace.
