      When I first started hearing (& understanding !) that some people are Born-of-the-Spirit while incarcerated, it struck me how powerful a testimony that is. [Here you are - your body so limited, imprisoned - yet, your spirit comes to (eternal !) Life and your soul is as free as ever it can be !!!]
      God alone is able to restore our souls within us, no matter where we are 🙂
      I rejoice with you in your awesome Redemption/Salvation.
      [My ‘imprisonment’ was a spiritual one - like Mary Magdalene I was (literally) ‘inhabited’ by demons. So it was a radical Salvation.]
      Brother, I hope you’re being blessed by watching the program “The Chosen”. Just get the phone App (same name), & it casts to your TV. It’s rather amazing.
      Godspeed.

I had never heard it before. .. was completely overwhelmed with it and the rousing singing from our small congregation..I immediately said this is the hymn I want at my funeral. "My chains fell off. My soul was free" how brilliant are all the words! I have left instructions that I definitely want this hymn at my funeral...thank you..

      My self and family moved to Alabama after 37 years in WA state. The churches there most of them have modern worship and praise leaders and there isn't anything that would inspire like the old hymns do. I'm sure there some new songs like Mary did you know? or Praise the Lord. Most songs that repeat one verse for 5-6 times get this music trained Baptist just bored to tears. GOD bless the old masters and mistress Fanny Cosby for their blessed hymns.

    Written in May 1738 a few days after Charles Wesley truly found his relationship with God and gave himself to Christ on Romans 8 and when St Peter felt the chains falling from him Charles must have felt the same assurance and peace . The beginning of writing 6,000 songs and verses in faith. Truly written in the Spirit this song is as powerful today as it was nearly 300 years ago. May everyone who watches and sings along to it be as blessed as I am. Chris x

It's just so lazy and only aims at appealing to the broadest audience without bothering to offering any theology to it

    How profound are the words of this song. Imagine Christ leaving his Father's throne above, emptying himself of all but love so he could shed his innocent blood for Adam's helpless race! I am part of that race, the human race - a race so pleasant, so gifted, so immensely creative and yet on the flip side also capable of destructive greed, selfishness and pride. That is who we are because of the sinful nature in us. But praise be to God! Christ bled for us, the helpless race and now calls us to reconcile with God. I listened to that call in 1983 and today I join in to sing this song with gratitude because " I am alive in Him my living head and clothed in righteousness divine." The words of the song come alive in me because I realized that only by accepting Him as my Lord and savior can I fully understand the meaning and purpose of life. I am so grateful I did. You who reads this and yet haven't done the same, please repent of your sins and accept the lordship of Christ over your life and you will truly enjoy the words of this song. Amen.

    My late mother's favorite hymn. She passed away suddenly of a heart attack on the pre-dawn morning of December 22, 1996 and we sang this at her funeral. I cry every time I hear this because it reminds me of her. When I was a child she taught Sunday School and was an elementary schoolteacher during the week. Now I live in Asia and I have followed in her footsteps to become an elementary school teacher, teaching English as a second language. My father has long since retired as an attorney and he always says he is proud that I followed my mother's profession. Thank you, mom, for inspiring me, for loving me. Every time I play this song on my phone, I dedicate it to you.

The laypeople of this church, from all walks of life, did an incredible presentation. It also warms my heart to see that this Holy praise is on the verge of 5MM views! Despite what you've heard in the media, Almighty God is STILL large and in charge, now and forevermore!

      Fur - I never used to believe in gold, either. Never saw it. But those that went searching for it in Alaska during the latest gold rush, found it. Just because i didn't see it and didn't believe in it, didn't mean it didn't exist. God said He would be found by those who seek Him with all their hearts. I sought Him very hard when I was 5 - my life had been horrible and I needed someone to rescue me. He was there. He didn't stop the pain, but He did give me the strength and wisdom to overcome it - and now I help others. This is His grace. I hope you will search for God and find Him - because He is right there at your shoulder just waiting. I will keep you in prayer.

      I don't believe in God because there is no evidence that he exists, there are thousands of contradictions in the Bible, evolution is real, and the universe and Earth are clearly older than 10,000 years. I want to believe in a god, but I can't, it doesn't make sense. And please don't pray for me, thank you.

    This is perhaps one of the most amazing hymns written by the great classic composer: Charles Wesley. My favorite stanza is that which attempts to describe the love of Jesus Christ speaking of Him willfully leaving His Fathers thrown above... so free, so infinite His Grace... He Emptied Himself of all but Love... bleeding for Adam's helpless race to save us from eternal death. Truly, …AND CAN IT BE!!!

      Robert Ramsay Charles Wesley's 300th anniversary of his conversion was celebrated in 2007 - so technically this isn't a gospel hymn if by that you mean something recent coming out of southern United States - Charles was an ordained minister in the Church of England though his hymns are fundamental to the Methodist tradition - matters not really if the message of his words continue God's work here on earth 😊
