Lyrics of 'You Set Me Free' by Sandi Patty

There've been times in my life
You've opened doors
They weren't what I was hoping for
So I walked right by them
I didn't even try then

There've been dreams I forgot
And dreams I let die
Unnoticed sunsets in front of my eyes
I just couldn't see them
I thought I didn't need them
Sure, there are things I'd do different and yet
Grace gives me days where I simply forget

Chorus:
'Cause You set me free to run through fields of laughter
And to sing as though I have no yesterdays
You set me free from my befores and afters
From a debt I know I'll never pay when you set me free

There've been chances to love
That I've ignored
And mercies I found I couldn't afford
I'm sure I would have shown them
If I would have known then
How we all play a part in each other's lives
And there's more to the game than winning the prize
So much I want to try now
I feel like I could fly now
Sure, there are things I'd do different and yet
Grace gives me days where I simply forget

Repeat Chorus

Father, You father me
Ever so patiently
You give me wings to fly
When You set me free

To fly, to soar to places I've not been before
The boundaries of humnanity cannot contain
What You set free

Repeat Chorus

Father, You father me
Ever so patiently
You give me wings to fly
