She Set Me Free

V E R S E 1

She walked into my life like a warm summer breeze

Soft hands and gentle spirit, showed me where I belonged

Wasn’t looking for a savior, but that’s exactly what I found

Through all the hard times, love grew from the hard ground

She taught me how to love, how to fight, how to bend

How to be a better man than I was back then

C H O R U S

She set me free — broke the chains I couldn’t see

With every smile, every touch, every prayer on bended knee

Gave me wings when the world tried to hold me down

in her arms I finally knew what freedom felt like on this ground

Yeah, she set me free

In the truest way

Even now, after she’s gone…she still sets me free today

V E R S E 2

She carried babies, carried burdens, carried me when I was weak

Stood beside me through the battles when I was fighting to do right, not just speak

Through long days of hard work and longer nights of fear

She was the strength and faith that held our family near

When the cancer came calling, she never lost her grace

She looked at death and smiled like she’d already won the race

CHORUS

She set me free — broke the chains I couldn’t see

With every smile, every tough, every prayer on bended knee

Gave me wings when the world tried to hold me down

In her arms I finally knew what freedom felt like on this ground

Yeah, she set me free

In the truest way

Even now, after she’s gone…she still sets me free today

B R I D G E

Some men chase money, some chase fame

I got lucky — I got love that had a name

Now every morning when I wake up alone

I thank the Lord for the years He let me call her home

F I N A L C H O R U S

She set me free….and gave me faith that was deep

Showed me how to stand tall even when the road is long

Now I’m raising up these kids the way she showed me how

Trying to live the kind of love she’s still pouring down

Yeah, she set me free

Lord, I hope she sees

That even now…she’s still setting me free
