THOU HAST SNAPPED

Thou hast snapped my fetters;

Thou hast made me free.

Liberty and gladness I have found

in Thee,

liberty from bondage, from my

weary load,

Satan's slave no longer, now a

child of God!




I am Thine Lord Jesus, ever

Thine, Thine I am,

and my heart is singing, ‘Glory to the Lamb.’




Living in the sunshine, shining in Thy light,

fighting as Thy soldier, mighty in

Thy might;

going on Thy mission, pointing men to Thee,

telling of the Saviour who can set them free.




Such the life, Lord Jesus, I would

ever live,

such the grateful tribute I would

ever give;

witnessing for Thee, Lord, everywhere I go,

of the Blood that cleanseth, washing white as snow.




And when life is ended, when the victory's won,

when I hear from Thee, Lord, the

glad words, ‘Well done,’

with what joy and rapture shall I

sing of Thee,

who from sin's dark chains didst

set my spirit free!
