Speak cover
05. For Freedom
Album: Speak
Artist: Jimmy Needham
         
 

Oh to be delighted by you
And to see the colors of your train
And to be freed by you
That would be, that would be
That would be my claim to fame
So rejoice my friend because my friend
You’ve got a friend and friend indeed
It is for freedom he set us free

But Simon says to fill your void
With toy after toy after girl after boy
After all isn’t that what we were meant for?
Please believe me when I say
It is for freedom he set us free

O poor us we sigh
Pour us out I cry
So we can be free
The bigger picture is there is a holy calling

O how I’m slowly falling, falling, falling in love
And your water has been pouring out on me
How could I be so naive?
It is for freedom he set us free


Written by Jimmy Needham

Behind the Song:
"A fun little acoustic piece, “For Freedom” was written with a lighthearted musical feel but an important message. It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Therefore, let us no longer get tangled up in the vacant pleasures of this world.”- Jimmy Needham
