Hallelujah, I Am Free

At the mer­cy seat I lin­ger

Where I see the crim­son seal

Of the Love that bowed and suf­fered

Death and dark­ness to re­peal;

There my res­cued soul is kneel­ing

Lost in won­der at the grace

That re­moves the curse eter­nal

From a lost and ru­ined race.

At the mer­cy seat I lin­ger

Lo! the sprin­kled blood I see

Hallelujah

I am ran­somed!

Hallelujah

I am free!

Here the ho­ly bread is brok­en

To sus­tain my faint­ing heart

Here the gra­cious word is spok­en

That will make my grief de­part;

Lo! thy sins are all for­giv­en

Go in peace and sin no more!

Satan’s cru­el chain is riv­en

And my slav­ery is o’er.

Here I drink the cup of heal­ing

That will soothe my trou­bled breast

Filled with faith and hope ce­les­ti­al

Now I enter in­to rest;

From the Spir­it’s ho­ly al­tar

To my lips will leap the flame

That in­spires the con­stant spread­ing

Of my great Re­deem­er’s fame.
