1 verse:
F Bb F Bb
Once I was bound by sin’s galling fetters,

Chained like a slave I struggled in vain.
Gm Eb Bb
But I received a glorious freedom
Eb Bb F Bb
When Jesus broke my fetters in twain.
Chorus:

Glorious freedom wonderful freedom
F Gm C F
No more in chains of sin I repine!
Bb F Gm Bb
Jesus the glorious Emancipator,
Eb Bb F Bb Eb | Bb
Now and forever He shall be mine.
2 verse:
Freedom from all the carnal affections,
Freedom from envy, hatred and strife.
Freedom from vain and worldly ambitions.
Freedom from all that saddened my life.
3 verse:
Freedom from pride and all sinful follies,
Freedom from love and glitter of gold.
Freedom from evil temper and anger,
Glorious freedom rapture untold.
4 verse:
Freedom from fear with all of its torments,
Freedom from care with all of its pain.
Freedom in Christ my blessed Redeemer,
He who has rent my fetters in twain.
