I was bound and oppressed, tormented and tested
By this world that I’m living in
I saw no way out
My life filled with doubt
How could I ever be free again?
I saw obstacles everywhere I turned
From the past mistakes where I’d been burned
Then a voice whispered in my ear
My child, be still I am here
My grace will abound in your life
My mercy will pull you aside
Out of this bondage
Out of your past
Into a blessing that will surely last
Do not despair just lift your eyes to the skies
My grace will abound in your life
When I heard Him speak these words to me
Tears filled my eyes as I realized
This was a promise
This freedom was coming
A freedom to transform my life
I saw blessings everywhere I turned
All the years of obedience had earned
Then I lifted my voice to the skies
Dear Lord, your grave has arrived
Your grace will abound in my life
Your mercy has pulled me aside
Out of my bondage
Out of my past
Into a blessing that will surely last
I will give praise to Jesus above
Who has rescued me by His love
His grace will bring freedom.
His grace will bring faith
His grace will bring healing
His grace will bring erase
All the chains that have held me down
Will fall to the ground
As His grace abounds
His grace will abound in my life
His mercy will pull me aside
Out of this bondage
Out of your past
Into a blessing that will surely last
I will not despair. I will lift up my eyes to the skies
His grace will abound in my life
I will lift up my eyes to the skies
His grace will abound in my life
