Free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the devil he's a liar
Come and save the likes of me
I saw your lives from the streets
As I passed by the other day
I was scared
My knees were weak
I forgot what I had come to say
Free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the devil
He's a liar
Come and save the likes of me
Saw a man walk on water
With everybody looking on
I didn't know
I was his daughter
Till both of us
Had come and gone
Free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the devil
He's a liar
Come and save the likes of me
If you see me in the alley
Looking like I don't belong
You can put me in your deepest valley
I'll still be singing the same old song
Free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the devil he's a liar
Come and save the likes of me
I said free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the devil he's a liar
Come and save the likes of me
Free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out of the raging sea
Tell the devil he's a liar
Come and save the likes of me
