<lyrics>[V1]
 Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance
 I just wanna praise you
 I just wanna praise you
 You broke the chains now I can lift my hands
 And I'm gonna praise you
 I'm gonna praise you

[V2]
 In the corners of mind
 I just can't seem to find a reason to believe
 That I can break free
 Cause you see I have been down for so long
 Feel like the hope is gone
 But as I lift my hands, I understand
 That I should praise you through my circumstance

[V3]
 Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance
 I just wanna praise you
 I just wanna praise you
 You broke the chains now I can lift my hands
 And I'm gonna praise you
 I'm gonna praise you

[V4]
 Everything that could go wrong
 All went wrong at one time
 So much pressure fell on me
 I thought I was gon lose my mind
 But I know you wanna see
 If I will hold on through these trials
 But I need you to lift this load
 Cause I can't take it anymore

[V5]
 Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance
 I just wanna praise you
 I just wanna praise you
 You broke the chains now I can lift my hands
 And I'm gonna praise you
 I'm gonna praise you

[V6]
 Been through the fire and the rain
 Bound in every kind of way
 But God has broken every chain
 So let me go right now

[V7]
 Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance
 You broke the chains now I can lift my hands

[V8]
 Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance
 I just wanna praise you
 I just wanna praise you
 You broke the chains now I can lift my hands
 And I'm gonna praise you
 I'm gonna praise you</lyrics>
