2. Arise! Be Free!

1 In the land of bondage,
Why should I remain,
When the Lord invites me,
With Him to reign?
When the Lord invites me
With Him to reign?

Refrain:
Glory, glory, glory!
No more chains for me!
My Redeemer says, “Arise,
I will make you free!”
Glory, glory, glory!
No more chains for me!
My redeemer says “Arise,
Arise! Be free!”

2 Why should sons of Jacob
Serve a tyrant king,
When the “Song of Moses”
They are may sing?
When the “Song of Moses”
They are may sing? [Refrain]

3 From Egyptian bondage—
All my sin and shame—
I can be delivered;
Oh, praise His name!
I can be delivered;
Oh, praise His name! [Refrain]

4 Plagues unmixed with mercy
Are about to fall,
Has the blood been sprinkled
Upon us all?
Has the blood been sprinkled
Upon us all? [Refrain]
