Let My People Go (Live)

Matt Redman

Lyrics
You stand for freedom freedom
You stand for justice in this world
So many stolen, stolen
Slaves to the shadows of this earth

But these are Your sons and daughters God
And though the darkness seems so strong
Your fire of justice breaks the night
We hear You cry

Let my people go, let my people go
Light a fire in the dark
A fire in the dark
Let my people go Light a fire in the dark
A fire in the dark
Let my people go

So we'll stand for freedom, freedom
We'll stand for justice in this world
All of the stolen, stolen
Never forgotten in Tour heart

These are Your sons and daughters God
And though the darkness seems so strong
Your fire of justice breaks the night
We're ready to fight

Another stolen life another hidden cry
But these are Your sons and daughters God
Trafficked in the night broken by the fight
Rescue Your sons and daughters God

Another stolen life another hidden cry
But these are Your sons and daughters God
Trafficked in the night broken by the fight
We hear the cry

💡 Song Meaning & Background
