Ghost Town (Freedom)

The earth was new, a great frontier

A perfect place to spread his fears

So Satan set up shop to draw them in

Bright lights to display all his wares

Come on in, forget your cares

That devil knew just how to package sin

People came from far and wide

Not a guilty soul denied

But before they knew they’d been deceived

They’d step inside and never leave

They said his eyes were black as coal

His voice a shudder to the soul

He preyed upon the broken and the proud

He told them they were lost for good

No one loved them; and who would?

Before too long he owned that fallen town

And from inside the gates they’d wail

“Who can save us from this hell?”

And as their hopes turned into tears

He laughed and all his demons stood and cheered

And down the dirt road from the East

Came one they said could slay the beast

But did not fight with bullets or a sword

They called Him ‘Mercy’ and at His side

A thousand angels chose to ride

And as they moved the ground like thunder roared

Stepping down from his white horse

With a supernatural force

He spoke to his demonic foe:

“I’m here to keep the lost; so let them go!”

But that great deceiver only grinned

As his demons rallied to defend

He said, “The price of justice must be paid.”

So Mercy rising from his from his seat

Showed them all His hands and feet

And said, “I am the lamb that was slain”

Then the demons and their thief

Shook their heads in disbelief

And began to writhe upon the ground

When they saw He held the keys to their ghost town

Then one by one the slaves began to shout

And the captives found their way out

Mercy broke the chains and they cried out:

“Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!”

Mercy broke the chains and they cried out:

“Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!”

Then one by one the slaves began to shout

And the captives found their way out

Mercy broke the chains and they cried out:

“Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!”

Mercy broke the chains and they cried out:

“Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!”

Then one by one the slaves began to shout

And the captives found their way out

Mercy broke the chains and they cried out:

“Freedom! Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!”
