Deniece Williams

I was so weary, sick and tired of sin
It seemed to me my life was about to end
I'd been running for so long
Just a fugitive
But I knew that there must be a better way to live

Then Jesus knocked
And I opened up
The door of my heart
Then He picked me up
And He gave me a brand new start

I'm free
I'm free

I tried to run my life out there on my own
I thought that I could do it all alone
Kept on destroying myself
I saw no way to win
But He knew that
It would take His love for me to mend

Then Jesus knocked
And I opened up
The door of my heart
And then He picked me up
And He gave me a brand new start

I'm free
I'm free
I'm free

I'm Yours
Lord, I'm Yours
Thank You Jesus
I'm Yours
Lord, I'm Yours
Won't you send me?
Please send me

Won't You
Won't You
Won't You send me
Then Jesus picked me up
And He gave me a brand new start

I'm free, yeah
I'm free, I am free
Yes, I am
I'm free
So, I'm free
I am free

I'm free
I am free
I'm free
I'm free
