☆ I Am Free (From the new CD Go by the Newsboys)

through You the blind will see
through You the mute will sing
through You the dead will rise
through You all hearts will praise
through You the darkness flees
through You my heart screams ‘I am free’
I am free

I am free to run (I am free to run)
and I am free to dance (I am free to dance)
I am free to live for You (I am free to live for You)
I am free (I am free)
yes, I am free (I am free)
I am free!
I am free to run (I am free to run)
and I am free to dance (I am free to dance)
I am free to live for You (I am free to live for You)
I am free (I am free)
yes, I am free (I am free)

(Peter Furler:)
≫Are you free?
– I am free! –
Come on!≪

and I am free to run (I am free to run)
and I am free to dance (I am free to dance)
and I am free to live for You (I am free to live for You)
I am free (I am free)
yes, I am free (I am free)

(Peter Furler:) ≫Oh, who the Son sets free is free indeed – do you believe that?≪
Audience: ≫Yeah!≪

(Peter Furler / Bridge:)
"As the first Adam’s sweat surrounds my face,
may the last Adam’s blood my soul embrace.
As the first Adam’s sweat surrounds my face,
Lord, may the last Adam’s blood my soul embrace." ≪

(Peter Furler / Preaching:)
"See, my servant will act wisely;
he will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted.
Just as there were many who were appalled at him –
his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any man
and his form marred beyond human likeness –
so will he sprinkle many nations,
and kings will shut their mouths because of him.
For what they were not told, they will see,
and what they have not heard, they will understand."
"He was despised and rejected by men,
a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering.
Like one from whom men hide their faces
he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
But surely he took up our infirmities
surely carried our sorrows,
yet we considered him stricken by God,
smitten by him, and afflicted.
But he was pierced for our transgressions,
[he was] crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brings us peace today was upon him,
and because of His wounds we are healed",
because of His wounds I am healed,
because of His wounds you are healed –
do you believe it?

Yeah! (13x)≪

I am free to run (I am free to run)
I am free to dance (I am free to dance)
and I am free to live for You (I am free to live for You)
I am free (I am free)
Peter Furler: "Come on, one more time!" (I am free… I am free…)
I am free to run (I am free to run)
I am free to dance (I am free to dance)
and I am free to live for You (I am free to live for You)
I am free (I am free)
yes, I am free (I am free)

(Peter Furler / Preaching:)
≫The hands of freedom stretching out to You
… hold out your hands for freedom …
freedom in your head
freedom in your heart
freedom in your marriage
freedom in your mind
freedom in your emotions
freedom in every area of life
the freedom comes through the blood
it comes through the Word, comes through the body, comes through the spiritual family
it comes through the presence of God.
The price has been paid,
freedom’s price has been paid,
the price has been paid.≪
