230. Free at Last

Refrain:
Free at last, free at last,
I thank God I’m free at last.
Free at last, free at last,
I thank God I’m free at last.

1 ’Way down yonder in the graveyard walk,
I thank God I’m free at last,
Me and my Jesus goin’ to meet and talk,
I thank God I’m free at last. O [Refrain]

2 On-a my knees when the light pass’d by,
I thank God I’m free at last,
Tho’t my soul would rise and fly,
I thank God I’m free at last, O [Refrain]

3 Some of these mornings, bright and fair,
I thank God I’m free at last,
Goin’ to meet King Jesus in the air,
I thank God I’m free at last. [Refrain]
