Lyrics Born Free - Soom T

If I was born free, why am I in chains?
If I'm meant to die then why suffer the pain?
Made in the image of God why like a beast must I be tamed?
To be glorified why must I first see my shame?
If I was born free, why am I in chains?
If I'm meant to die then why suffer the pain?
Made in the image of God why like a beast must I be tamed?
To be glorified why must I first see my shame?

In the midst of evil on myself I cast blame
For the miseries I witness upon these darker plains
To live is Christ, they say to die is gain
Freed calling on Jesus, saviour in a name
For we are clay pots and as worthless as dust
If in our flesh and our own minds we trust
For there is a truth that in only one man was made
To free us from sin and free us from this age

If I was born free, why am I in chains?
If I'm meant to die then why suffer the pain?
Made in the image of God why like a beast must I be tamed?
To be glorified why must I first see my shame?
If I was born free, why am I in chains?
If I'm meant to die then why suffer the pain?
Made in the image of God why like a beast must I be tamed?
To be glorified why must I first see my shame?

If I was born free why I see prison bars?
Babylon slaves selling themselves for flash cars
Lying to the youth and sending them out to war
If not to live free then what's my life for?
For blessed is he who took up our cross
Those his true children know as our true God
Perfect yet treated with evil as of the rot
Was risen to save us, the sinful and lost

If I was born free, why am I in chains?
If I'm meant to die then why suffer the pain?
Made in the image of God why like a beast must I be tamed?
To be glorified why must I first see my shame?
If I was born free, why am I in chains?
If I'm meant to die then why suffer the pain?
Made in the image of God why like a beast must I be tamed?
To be glorified why must I first see my shame?

Our burdens we carry, our will not our known
For you we wait patiently, as our love is grown
To love those who hate us, comfort those who mourn
Love and forgive enemies and we'll be reborn
For now as vessel of Christ we depart
Each to our own path yes and narrow as a crack
Though none will go with us, as we all venture through the dark
We faithfully trust in the word of Jesus

If I was born free, why am I in chains?
If I'm meant to die then why suffer the pain?
Made in the image of God why like a beast must I be tamed?
To be glorified why must I first see my shame?
If I was born free, why am I in chains?
If I'm meant to die then why suffer the pain?
Made in the image of God why like a beast must I be tamed?
To be glorified why must I first see my shame?
If I was born free, why am I in chains?
If I was born free, why am I in chains?
Though none go with me, I will follow
Carrying the cross of pain, shame and sorrow
Happily stand up ready to be brought low
So come with me for a better tomorrow

If I was born free, why am I in chains?
If I'm meant to die then why suffer the pain?
Made in the image of God why like a beast must I be tamed?
To be glorified why must I first see my shame?
If I was born free, why am I in chains?
If I'm meant to die then why suffer the pain?
Made in the image of God why like a beast must I be tamed?
To be glorified why must I first see my shame?
If I was born free, why am I in chains?
If I'm meant to die then why suffer the pain?
Made in the image of God why like a beast must I be tamed?
To be glorified why must I first see my shame?
If I was born free
If I was born free
If I was born free
