East to West
Grace Unleashed: Journey from Chains to Freedom
Lyrics
I remember that prison cell
Recollection of being in a state of confinement or bondage
That held me in my sin and guilt
Feeling trapped by one's own wrongdoing and feeling remorseful
I remember I was left for dead
Remembering a moment of despair or hopelessness
Shame said no but Your grace said yes
Contrast between shame's denial and the acceptance of grace
I remember that song of praise
Recollection of a time when a song of praise was significant
When walls fell down in Jesus' name
Reflection on a moment where obstacles were overcome through faith
I remember what happened next
Recalling the aftermath of a significant event
Chains said no, but Your love said yes
Resistance of chains contrasted with the power of love
Oh how that grace ran east to west
Expression of grace extending widely from one point to another
Forgiven forever, amen
Acknowledgment of perpetual forgiveness, concluding with affirmation
Scattered my shame into the wind
Symbolic scattering of shame, releasing it from one's life
Oh how You love me
Acknowledgment and gratitude for divine love
Mercy mercy, how it calls to me
Recognition of the compelling nature of mercy
From the precious hill called Calvary
Reference to the place where Jesus was crucified, symbolizing redemption
Thank You Jesus, all because You bled
Gratitude towards Jesus for the sacrifice made on the cross
My past said no, but the cross said yes
Conflict between past mistakes and the transformative power of the cross
Hallelujah, You came looking for me
Celebration of being sought and found by a higher power
Looking for me now I'm found
Acknowledgment of being discovered or rescued
Hallelujah, You came looking for me
Reiteration of being sought and found, emphasizing the realization
Looking for me now I'm found
Acknowledgment of being found after being sought
