The Cost of Our Freedom – v2

As for our country
so for our souls, our spirits,
the cost of our freedom
amazing to comprehend
Love poured out on us.

The sacrifice of our kinsmen
the people of this land
the sacrifice of the Lamb,
dying that we would live
in freedom once again.

The price that they paid
lovingly on our behalf
never to be repaid, ever,
forever may we remember
the awful price they paid.
