It is number 6 on their Lifesong, CD. Here are the lyrics (the melody and accompaniment perfectly suit the situation of the maniac, in my mind). I must have cried the first 10 times I heard this song.<BR/><BR/><BR/>"Set Me Free"<BR/><BR/>It hasn't always been this way<BR/>I remember brighter days<BR/>Before the dark ones came<BR/>Stole my mind<BR/>Wrapped my soul in chains<BR/><BR/>Now I live among the dead<BR/>Fighting voices in my head<BR/>Hoping someone hears me crying in the night<BR/>And carries me away<BR/><BR/>Chorus: Set me free of the chains holding me<BR/>Is anybody out there hearing me?<BR/>Set me free<BR/><BR/>Morning breaks another day<BR/>Finds me crying in the rain<BR/>All alone with my demons I am<BR/>Who is this man that comes my way?<BR/>The dark ones shriek<BR/>They scream His name<BR/>Is this the One they say will set the captives free?<BR/>Jesus, rescue me<BR/><BR/>Chorus<BR/><BR/>As the God man passes by<BR/>He looks straight through my eyes<BR/>And darkness cannot hide<BR/><BR/>Do you want to be free?<BR/>Lift your chains<BR/>I hold the key<BR/>All power on Heav'n and Earth belong to me (repeat)<BR/><BR/>You are free<BR/>You are free<BR/>You are freeBob Haytonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05176224396073767674noreply@blogger.com
