Prisoner no more
No shackles will hold me down.
I will shake them off.
I am no longer a prisoner.
I will dance in the glory of the Lord.
Lord, I will flow with thee.
I am crossing over to my promises.
I have crossed over the Jordan.
Through muddy waters.
My legs are stiff.
I will not bend or break.
All knees will bow before God.
I will dance in his glory.
The Lord has so much to add to my story.
