He Broke the Chains
(William Burton Walbert)
Once I was down in sin’s dark prison
No one around to lead this place
I had no hope, no cause for living
But then Jesus came, He broke the chains
Chorus:
He broke the chain of fear & sorrow
He broke the chain of sin & shame
He wrote my name way up in glory
Since Jesus came, He broke the chain
In the tomb He laid,
Such a cold, dark prison
And for all the world, for all mankind
Then Mary cried, “My Lord has risen!”
From death He came, He broke the chains
