Release my chains

Dear Lord, I kneel so low and pray

Take this anger wash it away

It clings to me like shadows tight

Turn my darkness into light

This hurt was meant to chain my soul

But You can mend and make me whole

Remove the weight upon my chest

Heal this heart so it can rest

Release my chains set me free

Lift this pain that’s drowning me

We’ll rise above with love’s embrace

And find again my sacred space

Depression wears heavy skin

Peel it off and let life begin

Your hands can pull me from despair

Lord I know you’ve always cared

Strip the scars that shroud my fight

Drift them off into the night

With You all things can be done

Mercy shines like morning sun

Release my chains set me free

Lift this pain that’s drowning me

We’ll rise above with love’s embrace

And find again my sacred space

When you feel like life

Has got to be just too much

You drift through a room

But nobody seems to look up

You laugh at their jokes

They don't even hear your name

You go home alone

Thinking maybe you're to blame

When you feel like life

Has got to be just too much

Like no one really wants

To be around you

To be around you

Let my voice be proof

You are not some empty space

You are more than what they see

You are love

You are grace

You scroll through their lives

Pictures full of perfect days

You start to believe

There's no place for you to stay

But your quiet heart

Holds a world they’ve never known

If they cannot see

That doesn't make you less whole

When you feel like life

Has got to be just too much

Play this back and know

Someone’s here

Someone’s here

I’m around you

I’m around you
