Cut My Chains

Come to me, Lord, and cut my chains
That I may not by sin be bound,
For sin has caused me inward pain
With knots that Satan has wrapped ‘round.

I know Your Cross is like a knife
That chains can cut and set me free
And cleanse me of my inner strife
So in You I can myself be.

I know without You I am lost,
A prisoner tied and bound for hell,
But You have paid for me the cost
To set me free with truth You tell.

And now as free man I choose You,
For as Your captive I rejoice;
In bondage to You I can view
How You present to each a choice. 

When each of us will rightly choose,
No longer will we be downcast,
For You we gain as sin we lose
And welcome-in Your love so vast.
