When you bound my eyes you freed me for flying
When you blindfolded me you freed my sight
When you knocked me down you freed me with a shove
And when you hated me you freed me to love
When you stole my book you freed me to learn
When you slide my cheek you freed me to turn
When you clipped my wings you freed me from the glow
When you hated me you freed me to love
When you hated me you freed me to love
When you coughed me you cut my burdens off
When you jailed me you saw my dreams and laughed
You tried to break me like every sinner does
But when you hated me you freed me to love
When you hated me you freed me to love
When you hated me you freed me to love
When you blindfolded me you freed my sight
When you knocked me down you freed me with a shove
And when you hated me you freed me to love
When you stole my book you freed me to learn
When you slide my cheek you freed me to turn
When you clipped my wings you freed me from the glow
When you hated me you freed me to love
When you hated me you freed me to love
When you coughed me you cut my burdens off
When you jailed me you saw my dreams and laughed
You tried to break me like every sinner does
But when you hated me you freed me to love
When you hated me you freed me to love
When you hated me you freed me to love
