This morning they came in to tell me
That I had a choice to make
Reject all the things I believed in
Or in their prison I would stay
They said that my wife wants to see me

And back home my family awaits
I fell to my knees in surrender
Your grace gave me strength to say

YOU CAN TAKE AWAY MY FREEDOM
YOU CAN TAKE AWAY MY HUMAN RIGHTS
YOU CAN TAKE AWAY MY FAMILY
EVERYTHING YOU SEE
EVEN TAKE MY LIFE
BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE AWAY WHAT I BELIEVE
THIS MIRACLE INSIDE OF ME
BECAUSE LOVE HAS SET THIS CAPTIVE FREE
AND I CAN DO ALL THINGS
THROUGH THE ONE WHO RANSOMED ME
YOU CAN'T TAKE AWAY WHAT I BELIEVE

It's been twenty years since I came here
Now the end is so near
My wife's gone on before me
My vision of heaven oh so clear
They told me that I'd never make it
The strain on my heart far to great
With faith I put pen to paper
My holy allegiance to state

YOU CAN TAKE AWAY MY FREEDOM
YOU CAN TAKE AWAY MY HUMAN RIGHTS
YOU CAN TAKE AWAY MY FAMILY
EVERYTHING YOU SEE
EVEN TAKE MY LIFE
BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE AWAY WHAT I BELIEVE
THIS MIRACLE INSIDE OF ME
BECAUSE LOVE HAS SET THIS CAPTIVE FREE
AND I CAN DO ALL THINGS
THROUGH THE ONE WHO RANSOMED ME
YOU CAN'T TAKE AWAY WHAT I BELIEVE

In my life there's been so many changes
Everything that you've said holds true
I've seen believers who have stood for me
Now I'm taking my stand for you

YOU CAN TAKE AWAY MY FREEDOM
YOU CAN TAKE AWAY MY HUMAN RIGHTS
YOU CAN TAKE AWAY MY FAMILY
EVERYTHING YOU SEE
EVEN TAKE MY LIFE
BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE AWAY WHAT I BELIEVE
THIS MIRACLE INSIDE OF ME
BECAUSE LOVE HAS SET THIS CAPTIVE FREE
AND I CAN DO ALL THINGS
THROUGH THE ONE WHO RANSOMED ME
YOU CAN'T TAKE AWAY WHAT I BELIEVE
