La música cristiana es de origen judío: la liturgia musical de la sinagoga, en particular el canto psalmódico de los judíos como unidad poética musical, fue un legado preciado transmitido del Israel antiguo al cristianismo primitivo, como forma de manifestar tanto a nivel personal como comunitario las creencias religiosas y la fe en Dios.
I was walking down an dead-end road
Carrying such a heavy load
But You lifted me with a mighty hand
And You taught feet just how to dance
Chorus:
Thank God I'm free
Hey I'm free to run again
Free to throw away these chains
Thank God I'm free
I'm free to live again
Never holding back again
Thank God I'm free
Thank God I'm free
Thank God I'm free
Every sorrow You replace with joy
I have every reason to rejoice
You broke the walls that held me in
Now I can shout and I can sing
(Chorus)
Bridge:
I just can't go back to where I've been
Living captive to the fear of men
I will not give up I won't give in
I'm holding nothing back
I'm holding on to You
Thank God I'm free
Hey I'm free to run again
Free to throw away these chains
Thank God I'm free
I'm free to live again
Never holding back again
Thank God I'm free
I'm free to run again
Free to throw away these chains
Thank God I'm free
Hey, I'm free to live again
Never holding back again
Thank God I'm free
Thank God I'm free
Thank God I'm free
I'm free!
