Lyrics
Who am I that the highest King
Would welcome me?
I was lost but He brought me in
Oh His love for me
Oh His love for me
Chorus
Who the Son sets free
Oh is free indeed
I’m a child of God
Yes I am
Free at last, He has ransomed me
His grace runs deep
While I was a slave to sin
Jesus died for me
Yes He died for me
Bridge
I am chosen
Not forsaken
I am who You say I am
You are for me
Not against me
I am who You say I am
Chorus
Who the Son sets free
Oh is free indeed
I’m a child of God
Yes I am
In my Father’s house
There’s a place for me
I’m a child of God yes I am

About This Song
From their latest project, "There Is More". I'm excited about this song because it speaks of an incredible truth that has the power to remind us that we are, indeed, a child of God. That we are chosen, not forsaken. God doesn't owe us any of this. He does it because HE loves us. We are free, because the Son has set us free! We are who HE says we are!
“The theme of the song is from John 8 which is you will know the truth and the truth will set you free. Jesus says, ‘who the son sets free, is free indeed.’ It’s a real declaration of identity. When I introduced this song into our church I read John 8, the scripture this song is based on. It talks about how a slave has no place in the family, but once we’ve been brought into the family then we have this identity as part of God’s family and that identity is an identity of freedom.” – Hillsong Worship
