They chained our bodies, not our soul Truth kept burning through the cold Through the cross and through the pain Grace ignites the freedom flame Voices rise from every land Holding truth in trembling hands Light the fire, let it burn Justice cries at every turn Through the storm, through the shame We will carry the freedom flame Dr. King had a dream so wide Mandela stood, though they tried Malcolm spoke with fearless eyes All stood tall, refusing lies But the greatest freedom call Came from Christ who died for all Light the fire, let it burn Justice cries at every turn Through the storm, through the shame We will carry the freedom flame Chains may rattle, hate may scream But God’s love still redeems No more silence, no more fear Heaven’s justice drawing near Light the fire, let it shine In our hearts, His truth divine Through the storm, through the flame We will rise in Jesus’ name
