Verse 1

Where once I was captive
He paid the price of escape
Still the enemy whispers
I’m still bound as a slave

Pre Chorus

But my God is good
He is faithful
Reminds my heart
That not one shackle remains
He was raised

Chorus

I’m not dragging
My chains around
Not another minute
Gonna lay them down
Grave is empty
Stone rolled away
I am free I don’t need to stay

Post Chorus

I give praise thanks
And follow Him out of thegrave
I give praise thanks
Chains were never meant to remain

Verse 2

I’m more than my failures
I’m a child of the King
The devil’s a liar
So I’m not listening

Chorus

I’m not dragging
My chains around
Not another minute
Gonna lay them down
Grave is empty
Stone rolled away
I am free I don’t need to stay

Post Chorus

I give praise thanks
And follow Him out of thegrave
I give praise thanks
Chains were never meant to remain

Let it out
Praise Him praise Him

Chains were never meant to remain

The fight isn’t mine
It never was
I will stand in His victory won
The fight isn’t mine
It never was
I will stand in His victory won

I will stand in His victory won

I’m not dragging
My chains around
Not another minute
Gonna lay them down
Grave is empty
Stone rolled away
I am free I don’t need to stay

Shout it loud
