CHORUS Praise the Lord, my God, now I am free At the cross Your grace took hold of me There You paid my debt, there You fought my fight Yes, the battle was Yours and the blessing is mine Praise the Lord, my God, now I am free At the cross Your grace took hold of me There You paid my debt, there You fought my fight Yes, the battle was Yours and the blessing is mine Yes, the battle was Yours and the blessing is mine Yes, the battle was Yours and the blessing is mine
