I declare my independence from the ruler of this world

 

Declaation of Dependence

 

I declare my independence from the ruler of this world

He has no sovereign hold over me

I know he stands in judgment and from heaven he was hurled

Ill depend upon the one who set me free

 

All things are possibleÝ if you Cling unto Christ

Unshackle your heart Treasure the One who paid the price

My freedom wasnít free But JesusÝ bore the loss

No freedomís never freeÝ Someone has to pay the cost

 

I declare my dependence on the sovereign Lord of All

He is the ruler who rules over me

The mind of the flesh cannot submit to his call

The heart of the flesh cannot be saved or free

 

All things are possibleÝ if you Cling unto Christ

Unshackle your heart Treasure the One who paid the price

My freedom wasnít free But JesusÝ bore the loss

No freedomís never freeÝ Someone has to pay the cost

 

Thereís no greater love in the end

Than a man lays down his life forÝ friends

Who have we to turn to but the Mighty Lord of Hosts

Who have we in heaven but the Lord who is our boast
