Ball and Chain Lyrics & Tabs by The Thirsting
Ball and Chain
guitar chords lyrics
You say to me that you are free
Yet you take the apple from the tree,
Your sins won't cover all your shame
Your freedom is your ball and chain!
I said He died to set you free,
Your sins He nailed upon a tree.
No fame, no shame, your soul to gain
Your freedom is your ball and... Chain!
The Son is rising!
The Son is rising!
Darling, reach back to Him
Before this day is ended.
'Cause pain is deep within you
And shame is in your hands now.
He's all around you
'Cause pain is deep within you
And shame is in your hands now.
He's all around you
He's all around you
Don't throw your hand.
'Cause time is ever fleeting
And souls in hell are screaming.
Temptation brings you back again,
Your feelings justify your sin,
Your faith to you is just a game,
Your freedom is your ball and chain.
I said He died to set you free,
Your sins He nailed upon a tree.
No fame, no shame, your soul to gain
Your freedom is your ball and...
Darling, reach back to Him
Before this day is ended.
'Cause pain is deep within you
And shame is in your hands now.
He's all around you
He's all around you
Don't throw your hand.
'Cause time is ever fleeting
And souls in hell are screaming.
And on a hillside stands outside of time
A mother holds her lifeless child
Who gives himself on calvary.
And we who live today still curse the Man,
Whose blood was shed for all to see,
And we say we're free.
