You Set Me Free
by Sandi Patty

Album: Simply Sandi
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 them
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

'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

'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

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 humanity
Cannot contain what You set free, oh...

And 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

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