My Soul Runs Free If a loved one in Heaven could offer you peace from your grief

My Soul Runs Free
If a loved one in Heaven could offer you peace from your grief, they might say it like this...

since the dawning of the ages, in the day of our lord
walked Jesus Christ who loved the sick and the poor
he taught me in my soul, that I am a wealthy man
when my body dies, I will walk with Christ together hand in hand
chorus:
I've been washed in the blood I hear the angels sing
we will gather up in glory in the presents of the king
don't shed a tear for me rejoice I beg you please
when my body lies still my soul runs free

I was blind years ago before I walked with the lamb
my soul was on the path of one to be damned
then JESUS touched me, when I was on my sinners knee
he washed my sins away yes Christ has set me free

I've been washed in the blood I hear the angels sing
we will gather up in glory in the presents of the king
don't shed a tear for me rejoice I beg you please
when my body lies still my soul runs free

for those I have left behind, your day will surely come
we will meet again in heaven in the glory of the son
your sins have been paid for, your soul has been set free
by that carpenter from Nazereth that loves both you and me

I've been washed in the blood I hear the angels sing
we will gather up in glory in the presents of the king
don't shed a tear for me rejoice I beg you please
when my body lies still my soul runs free
