1  What release the Savior gave me!

       Christ indeed has set me free!

    All the pow'r of sin is broken,

       All death's sting is passed from me!

 2  From the law Christ has delivered,

       To its claims I'm ever dead;

    Nevermore the law shall bind me,

       But by grace I'll live instead.

 3  Christ has sin condemned at Calv'ry

       And its power done away;

    Now it has no ground within me,

       I am freed from all its sway.

 4  Death by Him has been abolished,

       Incorrupted life is shown;

    Death's enthralling bonds are broken,

       Resurrection life is known.

 5  Christ through death has crushed the devil,

       World and demons by His might,

    From the pow'r of darkness brought me

       To the realm of life and light.

 6  All-sufficient grace He giveth,

       With His pow'r He covers me,

    Makes me glory in my weakness

       And in weakness strengthens me.
