I Will Be Free Songtext / Lyric

The mountains are steep

And the valleys low

And already I'm weary

But I have so far to go

Oh, and sorrow holds my hand

And suff'ring sings me songs

But when I close my eyes

I know to Whom I belong

Who makes me strong



I will be free

I will be free to run the mountains

I will be free

Free to drink from the living fountain

Oh, I'll never turn back

'Cause He awaits for me

Oh, I will be free






A wise man, a rich man

In paupers' clothes

A shepherd to lead us

Through the land of woes

Though many battles I have lost

So many rivers yet to cross

But when my eyes behold the Son

Who bore my loss, Who paid the cost



Oh, I will be free

I will be free to run the mountains

I will be free

Oh, free to drink from the living fountain

Oh, I'll never turn back

'Cause He awaits for me

Oh, I will be free



Oh, oh, and I'll dance on silver moonlight

And I'll walk through velvet fields

Oh, and I'll run into the arms

The arms that set me free



Oh, I will be free to run the mountains

I will be free

Free to drink from the living fountain

Oh, I'll never turn back

'Cause He awaits

Oh, I'll never turn back

Don't you ever turn back

'Cause someday, someday we're gonna see

That we will be free
