If the Son sets you free, you are truly free
(John 8:36; NLT).
1. Lord,
You live in every damaged body;
Every wounded, fragile, anxious mind.
2. Lord,
You live in every injured spirit;
Every broken heart, and those confined.
3. Lord,
You want to heal each mind and body,
Giving us new life, for you are kind.
4. Lord,
You want to set free every spirit,
And every broken heart you want to bind.
