Oh, to break these bonds
the bonds and limits
set for our lives
as though some demon has said
these are the limits of your life
to make your life a dungeon dark and dank
and so feeding on your oppression
grows stronger and stronger
and agony grows as the days pass
but oh, how we have a spirit
to shine in the darkness
a light from the heart to light the way
a spark from the great heart
of the one who make all
born from a father
singing the world into being
and filled the universe
with light and love
from end to end
who foreordained and foreknew
our victory complete
and treasures of hope forever won
