I AM FILLED WITH JOY NOW THAT I’M FREE
Lord You paid the price for my iniquities
Your forgiveness I could never earn
And You have not treated me
As my sins deserve
I’m giving You ecstatic praise
For You are good and You are great
Your love and grace I’ve understood
There is no God compared to You
I’m overwhelmed I must express
And praise You with exuberance
The life I lead the praise I give
Can only be like You: extravagant!
You are worthy of all passionate praise
We rejoice for we are those who are being saved
I cannot stay silent or reserved
I have tasted of Your love
Now my heart is stirred
Evan Rogers
