Out of my bondage, sorrow, and night,
Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!

Out of my sickness into Thy health,
Out of my want and into Thy wealth,
Out of my sin and into Thyself,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!
Into Thy freedom, gladness, and light,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
Out of my sickness into Thy health,
Out of my want and into Thy wealth,
Out of my sin and into Thyself,
Jesus, I come to Thee!

Out of earth’s sorrows into Thy balm,
Out of life’s storm and into Thy calm,
Out of distress to jubilant psalm,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!
Into the glorious gain of Thy cross,

Out of despair into raptures above,
Upward for aye on wings like a dove,
Jesus, I come to Thee!
Jesus, I come! Jesus, I come!

Into the flock Thy love doth enfold,
Ever Thy glorious face to behold,

(1) Having Been Freed from the Bondage of the Lawby the Spirit of the Lord
As those who are being transformed, we have been freed from the bondage of the law by the Spirit of the Lord. “The Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom” (2 Cor. 3:17). According to the context of 2 Corinthians 3, this freedom is the freedom from the bondage of the letters of the Old Testament law, that is, the written code of the Old Testament. At Paul’s time the Judaizers and those influenced by them were bound by the traditional code of the law. But the Lord Jesus came to release His followers from this bondage, in particular from the Judaic fold that was formed according to the code of the law in the Old Testament. All those who followed the Lord Jesus were freed from that bondage. Later, the Lord appeared to one of the strongest Judaizers, Saul of Tarsus, called him, and brought him out of the bondage of the law. Therefore, in 2 Corinthians 3:17 Paul could say that we have been freed from this bondage by the Spirit of the Lord.
We know that we are freed by the Spirit because where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. Now the Spirit of the Lord is with us, and we have full liberty, full freedom, from the bondage of the Old Testament code of the law.

We sung this song throughout the whole period of waiting around mum's deathbed as she was gasping for breath and finally went to be with the Lord.
Out of pain and sorrow to freedom and healing she went.
We will sing again around her grave today as we remember her good and blessed life.

This song has touched me so much in the deepest parts of my life. Jesus thank you for loving me even in my brokenness and arrogant pride and sin. To you I owe it all. Ever thy glorious face to behold- here and for ever.

Running from self into Christ is the escape that guarantees fulfilment in life on earth and eternity. Everyone should know the liberty in Christ Jesus!
