Hymn/Song Information

Once I was bound by sin's galling




Once I was bound
by sin’s galling fetters;
Chained like a slave,
I struggled in vain.
But I received
a glorious freedom,
When Jesus broke
my fetters in twain.

Glorious freedom!
Wonderful freedom!
No more in chains
of sin I repine!
Jesus the glorious
Emancipator—
Now and forever
He shall be mine.



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!

Glorious freedom!
Wonderful freedom!
No more in chains
of sin I repine!
Jesus the glorious
Emancipator—
Now and forever
He shall be mine.



Freedom from pride
and all sinful follies;
Freedom from love
and glitter of gold;
Freedom from evil
temper and anger;
Glorious freedom,
rapture untold!

Glorious freedom!
Wonderful freedom!
No more in chains
of sin I repine!
Jesus the glorious
Emancipator—
Now and forever
He shall be mine.



Freedom from fear
with all of its torments;
Freedom from care
with all of its pain;
Freedom in Christ,
my blessèd Redeemer—
He Who has rent
my fetters in twain.

Glorious freedom!
Wonderful freedom!
No more in chains
of sin I repine!
Jesus the glorious
Emancipator—
Now and forever
He shall be mine.
