“Freedom Don’t Come Free”
Written by Remington O’Neal Knight
December 04, 2007
“Lord, I Praise You In All I Do”

Standing at the wall
Reading the names off,
One at a time
As the rain washes over;
Each one.

I think about all the things they did
Over there in no man’s land,
Giving their all and a whole lot more
To protect our way of life.
And that’s when I realized
That freedom don’t come free.

“Someone had to die
Someone had to sacrifice,
To keep us free;
Someone had to suffer
In pain and agony,
So the rest of us
Could sleep in peace;
Someone had to die
For what was right,
Cause freedom don’t come free”.

Standing in the church
At the alter,
Staring at that man
Up on that rugged cross;
I can’t believe he died for me.

I think about what the Bible says
How he healed the blind man,
And made the deaf to hear again
Oh but most of all;
How he gave his life for everyone
To free the world from sin,
All because he knew
That freedom don’t come free.

“Someone had to die
Someone had to sacrifice,
To keep us free;
Someone had to suffer
In pain and agony,
So the rest of us
Could sleep in peace;
Jesus chose to die
For what he believed in
Cause freedom don’t come free”.

<Spoken 1>
Thank you to the soldiers
Who are overseas right now,
You’re in our thoughts
And you’re in our prayers;
God Bless You
For all that you’ve done for us.
(repeat Chorus 1)

<Spoken 2>
Thank you Jesus
For all you’ve done in my life,
And thank you so much
For your sacrifice;
On that old rugged cross
Where you gave your life for me.
(repeat Chorus 2)
