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

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
