Come to Set Us Free

Come to set us free, come to make us your own.
Come to show the way to your people, your chosen.
Open our lives to the light of your promise.
Come to our hearts with healing, come to our minds with power,
come to us and bring us your life.

You are light which shines in darkness, Morning Star which never sets.
Open our eyes which only dimly see the truth which sets us free.


Come to set us free, come to make us your own.
Come to show the way to your people, your chosen.
Open our lives to the light of your promise.
Come to our hearts with healing, come to our minds with power,
come to us and bring us your life.

You are hope which brings us courage, you are strength which never fails.
Open our minds to ways we do not know, but where your Spirit grows.


Come to set us free, come to make us your own.
Come to show the way to your people, your chosen.
Open our lives to the light of your promise.
Come to our hearts with healing, come to our minds with power,
come to us and bring us your life.

You are promise of salvation, you are God in human form.
Bring to our world of emptiness and fear the Word we long to hear.
