This is a cry of the oppressed!
This is a cry of the oppressed!

I fix my eyes above and I scream for relief
This suffering is just to much.
My God, hear my cry!
My throat is raw from screaming and the pain is setting in
What's becom of my life?
This isn't how I imagined it
He is faithful
He has heard my cry

This darkness will not be allowed to be the end.
Deliver me from the hands of my oppressors.

Show me the light
Show me the light
Show me the light
I fix my eyes above and I scream for relief.
This suffering is just too much.

I will trust in a God who first trusted in me to save me
From the hands that placed me here
Free me from my oppressors!
Lead me from the chains that bind me here
Free me from my oppressors!

I am free!
I am free!
I am free!

I'm no longer a stranger in a foreign land
The promises made have been answered
I will walk with my head held high
Proclaiming the name of the one who saved me

This is a cry of the oppressed!
This is a cry of the oppressed!
This is a cry of the oppressed!
