Chains Come Loose

{upbeat acoustic guitar

strumming, bright piano chords,

swelling synth pad, driving four-on-the-floor kick,

build up}

I was broken, I was hopeless,

Buried underneath my shame.

Every chain that sin had wrapped around me

Kept me calling out Your name.

Then Your mercy found this sinner,

Grace reached farther than I knew.

Now my story stands forever

As a witness, Lord,

to You.

What the enemy meant for ruin,

Your redeeming hand made new.

Now I stand because of Calvary,

Only by the work of You.

{rising tom drum build} I’m a testimony of what Your love can

do. I’m living proof of the power of You.

Chains of sin that once had bound me Hold me no more—they’ve

all come loose.

I’ve been given a brand-new life,

I’ve been washed and born again.

I’m not who I used to be— I’m living proof of what

You did.

(ooh-yeah) {soaring electric guitar lead} I walked empty

through the darkness, Searching for another way.

Then You filled me with Your Spirit,

Turned my midnight into day.

Now the old man has been buried,

Every guilty page erased.

I’ve been raised to walk in freedom,

Standing in amazing grace.

If anyone wonders whether You still save,

Tell them to look at me.

If anyone questions whether mercy remains,

Tell them to look at me.

You still heal. You still restore.

You still open prison doors.

I am living, breathing evidence— Jesus,

You’re still changing hearts.

{rhythmic building drums} I’m a testimony of what Your love can do.

I’m living proof of the power of You.

Death has lost and grace has won,

My new life has just begun.

I’ve been given a brand-new life,

I’ve been washed and born again.

I’ll spend forever telling everyone I’m living proof of who You are.

(living proof)

{massive celebratory drop}

I'm living proof. (yeah,

I am) Living proof.

{gradually fading guitars and piano,

final lingering chord}
