Sounds Like Freedom

V E R S E 1

Windows down an old dirt road, summer dust in the air

Radio playin’ old country songs, smell of freedom in the air

Thinkin’ bout the simple days when life felt simple and right

a front porch swing, a loved one’s smile in the evening light

we didn’t need much, just room to breathe and the love we had

no chains on our hearts, no weight from another one’s hand

P R E - C H O R U S

Stood up for each other and what we believed in

chose the harder road ‘cause freedom feeds the soul

C H O R U S

It sounds like freedom - wheels turnin’ on an open road

Flag wavin’ high that the brave ones sowed

A baby’s first cry, a promise that said I do

the price someone paid so we can make it through

yeah, it sounds like freedom

ringing clear and true

In every heartbeat, in every prayer we pray

Lord, let this land keep soundin’ like freedom every day

I see the crosses row-on-row where heroes laid it down

gave their last full measure for this sacred ground

they walked through fire so we could walk in God’s grace today

Now we pass the torch - stand tall, but bend the knee to pray

to the ones who gave it all, who carved our rights in stone

Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness - ours to own

C H O R U S

It sounds like freedom - thunder in a summer storm

Old Glory snappin’, keepin’ our spirits warm

from quiet country mornings to the city lights at night

every choice we make keeps the fire burning bright

yeah, it sounds like freedom

callin’ out our name

in the quiet moments, in the pourin’ rain

Lord, let this sound never fade away

B R I D G E

We’ve wandered, we’ve prayed, but we keep comin’ around

to the truth that set us free, to the solid, narrow ground

to the hallowed sounds we hear each day

Humble at heart, that the only way we’ll stay

Thank You for the freedom that lights our way

F I N A L C H O R U S

It sounds like freedom - across these fields of green

From sea to shining sea, in every hope we’ve seen

no matter where the road bends or the shadows try to fall

we’ll keep singin’ it loud, answering freedom’s call

yeah, it sounds like freedom

forever strong and true

Lord, bless this land…let it always sound like freedom to me and you

O U T R O

Sounds like freedom…

Yeah, it sounds like freedom

Let it ring; forever true
