| 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! |
| | Christ has made me more than conqu'ror, |
| | By His might victory, |
| | Now His resurrection power |
| | >From my spirit strengthens 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. |
