One Day You Passed By Me

One day You passed by me You saw chains on my hands I saw with my own eyes Tears for me in Your eyes

One day I passed by You I saw my chains on Your hands I’m free because of You Then tears filled my eyes

(“How much, Lord, did You pay To set me free?” I asked “My son, it is a lot, But not too much for you.”) x2

One day by me You’ll pass About my freedom You’ll ask Feeling my slavery Although in You I’m free

My sins have bounded me Loving the world around me I seek my place in it That I am Yours I forget

(Free yet I am Your slave Yours for all of my days Your slave and free I’ll live To You myself I give.) x2
