Lyrics
Chains of Sin
The things I know that I should do
Are things that often go undone.
And things I know I shouldn't do
Are often things I find I've done.
Oh, Oh, Oh, my Lord
Break my will; free my soul.
Break these chains of sin.
Break these chains of sin.
Now every week I read Your Word,
And make a promise I will start.
So soon I'm back to my old world;
These old habits die so hard.
Oh, Oh, Oh, my Lord
Break my will; free my soul.
Break these chains of sin.
Break these chains, break these chains,
Break these chains of sin.
