Melodies of Love ‎#136

136. He Set Me Free

1 On Calv'ry's tree our Savior died;
His precious blood poured from His side;
yes He died there, for you and me,
Oh glory to God he set me free.

Refrain:
He set me free, He set me free,
He broke the bonds of sin for me;
Yes He died there for you and me,
Oh glory to God, He set me free.

2 The Son of God came from above,
Yes because of His wonderful love;
While living here, he died for me,
That I might live eternally. [Refrain]

3 They hung Him there, between two thieves,
That all the world, might be made free;
His blood was shed, to save the lost,
Oh what great love, Oh what a cost. [Refrain]
