Representative Text

1 I am now on the altar,
I am now on the altar,
I am now on the altar
Which was made for me.

Chorus:
Jesus breaks ev’ry fetter,
Jesus breaks ev’ry fetter,
Jesus breaks ev’ry fetter,
And He sets me free.

2 I will ne’er doubt my Savior,
I will ne’er doubt my Savior,
I will ne’er doubt my Savior,
For He cleanses me. [Chorus]

3 I will rest on His promise,
I will rest on His promise,
I will rest on His promise
Which is giv’n to me. [Chorus]

4 I will shout Hallelujah!
I will shout Hallelujah!
I will shout Hallelujah!
For He sets me free. [Chorus]
