Lyrics
You said, be as little children
You said, let the little children come to me
If you have faith like little children
The eyes of a child don’t see, but still believe
But Yahweh even as a child I turned
And chose a path, a plan apart from yours
Tried getting out through every window
Never turning ‘round to see your open door
Father make me free
Take these chains and break me free
Father make me free
Cleanse me
Take this heart, take these hands
Make me a part of your good plan
Take all that I have been
Rid my life of sin
Father make me free
Trained up in a generation
Where evil and temptation beckoned me
But since the dawn of your creation
You’ve been calling out a nation who would believe
Father make me free
Take these chains and break me free
Father make me free
Cleanse me
Take this heart, take these hands
Make me a part of your good plan
Take all that I have been
Rid my life of sin
Father make me free
Yahshua, I kneel before you
Saying please, free this burden from my life
That I may be made new
And serve you with all my heart
Yahshua, I kneel before you
(Even as a child I turned)
Saying please, free this burden from my life
(From the lessons I had learned)
That I may be made new
(Even as a child I strayed)
And serve you with all my heart
(From your straight and narrow way)
Father make me free
Take these chains and break me free
Father make me free
Cleanse me
Take this heart, take these hands
Make me a part of your good plan
Take all that I have been
And rid my life of sin
Father make me free
