Lyrics
Verse 1
I got this revelation
It's the reason that I praise
It's a celebration
Every time I hear Your name
Verse 2
I got this revelation
Of all You've done for me
You set my soul on fire
It's the reason that I can't
Pre Chorus
Wait to get to the house
Join in the praise
Lift up a song with
The angels and saints
Ain't got no time
To hesitate
'Cause I'm burning just to say
Chorus
I found freedom
This is freedom
When I found You
I found freedom
This is freedom
Verse 3
Oh I got a new beginning
My past has been erased
It's not the justafeeling
And I won't hold back my thanks
Pre Chorus
When I get to the house
Join in the praise
Lift up a song with
The angels and saints
Ain't got the time
To hesitate
'Cause I'm burning just to say
Chorus
I found freedom
This is freedom
When I found You
I found freedom
This is freedom
Chorus
I found freedom
This is freedom
When I found You
I found freedom
This is freedom
This is freedom

Meaning & Inspiration
“This Is Freedom (Ain’t No Rock)” presents praise as the visible response to rescue and renewal. The singer describes a past erased, a new beginning, and a soul awakened by what God has done. Freedom is tied directly to finding Christ, so celebration becomes more than emotion; it is gratitude expressed among angels, saints, and the gathered house of worship. The recurring chorus keeps that central claim clear and memorable.
The bridge’s declaration that no rock will cry out in the singer’s place echoes Jesus’ words in Luke 19:40, where even stones would cry out if praise were silenced. The song also aligns with 2 Corinthians 5:17 through its language of a new beginning and a former life passing away. Together, those themes frame Christian freedom as transformed identity and open thanksgiving. Energetic repetition serves the lyric’s purpose, turning personal testimony into communal praise without losing the focus on God as the source of freedom.
