Lyrics
Run Free
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The spirit of the sovereign Lord is on me
To tell the good news to the poor
To bind up the broken hearted's heartache
To open wide them prison doors
I cannot keep quiet
The song inside my skin
I feel it run like a river
I feel it running like a second wind
Come on won't you run?
Come on won't you run free?
Come on won't you run?
Come on won't you run free?
Come on won't you dance
Like a prisoner released?
Come on won't you run?
Come on won't you run free?
A crown of beauty for your ashes
Shake with laughter instead of fear
A coat of praise instead of darkness
A God of light gonna meet you here
Lift up your eyes now
He takes your shame
Rebuilds the ruins
Resurrection is the maker's name
Come on won't you run?
Come on won't you run free?
Come on won't you run?
Come on won't you run free?
Come on won't you dance
Like a prisoner released?
Come on won't you run?
Come on won't you run free?
He takes your shame
I cannot keep quiet
The song inside my skin
I feel it run like a river
I feel it running like a second wind
Come on won't you run?
Come on won't you run free?
Come on won't you run?
Come on won't you run free?
Come on won't you dance
Like a prisoner released?
Come on won't you run?
Come on won't you run free?
