Lyrics[]

The feeling comes to me in waves 
The darkest seas I’ve ever known 
Mine is an odyssey of grace 
Mine is a story headed home

I tie myself up to the mast 
Give up the semblance of control 
The sirens sing, but I let them pass 
Cause only you could free my soul

Only you could free my soul, yeah 
Only you could free my soul, yeah

Set these broken bones to cast 
Stitch my wounds with holy sutures 
Every saint has got a past, yeah 
But every sinners got a future

And only you could free my soul, yeah 
Only you could free my soul, yeah

Show me the freedom from these chains 
Show me a battlefield that’s safe 
That world is still a world away 
But you are my liberty

Free my soul, free my soul 
And let liberty flow 
Like a flood let it grow 
And I’ll let the past go

I’ll come running back home 
And I’ll make it, I know 
Oh my love, oh my hope 
Only you could free my soul

Free my soul 
Come on and free my soul 
Only you could free my soul

I tie myself up to the mast, 
I tie myself up to the mast and let it go 
Yeah, yeah
Only you could free my soul
