The Snare Is Broken - Psalm 124 — Freedom in Christ’s Victory | The Word Sung

The Snare Is Broken — Freedom in Christ’s Victory | The Word Sung A Scripture-shaped song proclaiming God’s deliverance from peril. LYRICS [Verse 1] If You had not been on our side When enemies arose in pride, The flood would have engulfed us whole, The raging stream swept through our soul. But You were there, our faithful Lord; No wave could silence Your sure word. We live to sing what You have done— The flood has passed, the victory won. [Pre-Chorus] Let all the rescued testify: The waters rose, but passed us by. Not by our strength, nor by the sword— Our help is in the name of the Lord. [Chorus] The snare is broken—we are free! Christ Jesus bought our liberty. No longer prey, no longer bound; The hunter’s net lies on the ground. Blessed be God who heard our cry, The Maker of the earth and sky. Our help is in the Lord alone— In Jesus Christ, our cornerstone. [Verse 2] The teeth were close, the trap was tight; We had no power left to fight. But Jesus took the sinner’s place And bore our judgment and disgrace. He rose; the cords of death were torn, And like freed birds, we met the morn. No chain can hold, no net can stay His rescued people on their way. [Pre-Chorus] Let all the rescued testify: The waters rose, but passed us by. Not by our strength, nor by the sword— Our help is in the name of the Lord. [Chorus] The snare is broken—we are free! Christ Jesus bought our liberty. No longer prey, no longer bound; The hunter’s net lies on the ground. Blessed be God who heard our cry, The Maker of the earth and sky. Our help is in the Lord alone— In Jesus Christ, our cornerstone. [Bridge] Who else but You has conquered death? Who else can give us life and breath? Though waters roar and proud men rise, You made the earth, You stretched the skies. The Maker’s hands still hold us too; Our only help is found in You. [Final Chorus] The snare is broken—we are free! Christ Jesus bought our liberty. No longer prey, no longer bound; The hunter’s net lies on the ground. Blessed be God who heard our cry, The Maker of the earth and sky. Our help is in the Lord alone— In Jesus Christ, our cornerstone. Psalm 124 reminds us that without God’s help, we would be overwhelmed by the dangers and snares of life. Yet, through Christ’s sacrifice and resurrection, the snares of sin and death are broken. Our freedom is not by our own strength but by the Lord, our steadfast help and cornerstone. Let us live as those rescued, testifying to God’s faithfulness and grace.
