"Filled With God's Holy Freedom"

I used to be a soul in stone, you know.
I knew my cause was right.
Deceived, I’d "found" the answer to the code.
I used to be a hard beatin’ wholesome one
But the times have changed.
The lesson saved, the more my work has done.
`Cause I live and breathe now filled with God's holy freedom!
On the day I was reborn, I waved the flag!
Filled with holy freedom took me knee-high to a man, Yeah.
Gave me peace of mind my daddy never had.
Oh, filled with God's holy freedom shine on me, I love you
Shine a light through the eyes of the world left behind.
Shine a light. shine a light.
Shine a light won't you shine a light.
Filled with God's holy freedom, I love you, yes I do!
If you choose to you can live your life alone
Some people choose the sinning (the sinning)
Some others choose the good old family home. (echo)
I liked living pleasy with those family ties (livin' pleasy)
Till the whip (poor will) of freedom zapped me
Right between the eyes!
`Cause I live and breathe now filled with God's holy freedom!
On the day I was reborn, I waved the flag!
Filled with holy freedom took me knee-high to a man, Yeah.
Gave me peace of mind my daddy never had.
Oh, filled with God's holy freedom shine on me, I love you.
Shine a light through the eyes of the world left behind.
Shine a light. Shine a light.
Shine a light won't you shine a light.
Filled with God's holy freedom, I love you, yes I do! (Chorus: 2X
2nd time to bridge)
Bridge:
Don’t ya know I love you. Don’t ya know I love you. Yeah.
Don’t ya know I love you. yes I do!
Filled with God's holy freedom I love you, yes I do!
Filled with God's holy freedom (ya’ know that) I love you, yes I do!
Filled with God's holy freedom (don’t ya’ know that) I love you, yes I do!
