Lyrics

Like A Thousand Chains
©2026 Kathryn R Robinson

[ Verse 1]
I know this life won’t last forever,
I'm aging every day.
Though my flesh will fail and wither,
I know my soul is saved.

[ Chorus]
Ancient Of Days has rescued me
From fiery gates, from dire straits.
Jesus my King has set me free
From sin and shame, from guilt and blame
Like a thousand chains, have fallen away
From me!

[Verse 2]
If my heart despairs in hard times,
I know You hold me near
You have paid the price for my crimes
There's nothing that I fear

[ Chorus]
Ancient Of Days has rescued me
From fiery gates, from dire straits.
Jesus my King has set me free
From sin and shame, from guilt and blame
Like a thousand chains, have fallen away
From me!

[Bridge]
Holy Holy, truly You are
Holy Holy, here in my heart
Your Spirit, guiding me through
Until I come home to You (’til I come home to You!)

[ Chorus]
Ancient Of Days has rescued me
From fiery gates, from dire straits.
Jesus my King has set me free
From sin and shame, from guilt and blame
Like a thousand chains, have fallen away
From me!
