Who the Son sets free Oh is free indeed I’m a child of God Yes I am In my Father’s house There’s a place for me I am chosen Not forsaken I am who You say I am You are for me Not against me
Alas! and did my Saviour bleed
And did my Sov’reign die?

For such a worm as I?

He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity! grace unknown!
And love beyond degree!
