1. once i was bound by sin's galling fetters
chained like a slave i struggledin vain
but i received thy glorious freedom
when Jesus broke my fetters in twain
chorus
glorious freedom,wonderful freedom
no more in chains of sin i repine
Jesus the glorious, emancipator
now and forever-He shall be mine
2. freedom from all the canal affections
freedom from envy,hatred and strife
freedom from vain and worldly amb
freedom fromall that saddened my life.
3. freedom from pride and all sinful follies
freedom from love and glitter gold
freedom from evil temper and anger
glorious freedom rapture untold
4. 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
