Defector

Based on Colossians 1:13, Ephesians 2:1-7, Isaiah 61:1,2

You used to play their games
You used to stay the same
They used to hold you back
They knew the best attack

They thought they had
A better hold on you
They thought that you
Would always stay true blue
They couldn't stop you
They had no defense
You went under the wire
You went over the fence

Defector
You broke the chains away
Defector
A higher power you obey
Now they have no hold on you
You've broken through
But don't forget to read the signs
'Cause You still live
Behind enemy lines
Defector

They used to drag you down
They used to have you bound
Just like a ball and chain
But they could not restrain

They thought that you
Could never break away
They thought that you
Would always go their way
They had you tied up habitually
They never figured
You'd ever get free

Defector
You broke the chains away
Defector
A higher power you obey
Now they have no hold on you
You've broken through
But don't forget to read the signs
'Cause You still live
Behind enemy lines
Defector

You got away clean
But it didn't come free
Another man paid
With His on agony for freedom
Freedom

They thought they had
A better hold on you
They thought that you
Would always stay true blue
They couldn't stop you
They had no defense
You went under the wire
Over the fence

Defector
You broke the chains away
Defector
A higher power you obey
Now they have no hold on you
You've broken through
But don't forget to read the signs
'Cause You still live
Behind enemy lines

Whoa...
Whoa...

You broke the chains away
Oh, oh, oh, oh...
