Free is music I conceived during an extraordinary experience where I felt free in peace and was healed.
==========
"Out of my distress I called on the Lord; the Lord answered me and set me free. " - Psalm 118:5
I wrote Free in 1986 when I was nineteen but waited until 2019 before I recorded it as an instrumental arrangement. In 2023, I found the right vocalist.
If you are familiar with the movie, Mr. Holland's Opus, I suppose that you might consider Free to be my opus. To me, however, Free has meant much more than a musical art project. Free has indeed been one of my most meaningful works.
During my 'extraordinary experience,' the music and lyrics of Free supernaturally resounded in my heart. Upon my return, both the basic piano part and lyrics flowed from me; but I was not so accomplished in composition and piano at that point. Yet, placed upon my heart was a song to grow into and an unforgettable memory of where I felt the freedom in peace that can miraculously heal a broken spirit. God made such a deep impression on me to bring such inspiration and transformation.
Free is my sincere expression of praise and worship to God who intervened to make a difference in my life and who has since brought me through so much by His mercy.
Over the years, I have occasionally flipped through the many pages of Free's manuscript in remembrance of that time when God helped me to overcome a challenge that seemed insurmountable. Such a Lord and Savior is for all who desire the unshakable hope that gives power to the weak and strength to the weary (read Isaiah 40:28-31).

Lyrics:
~ Verse 1 ~
Where I could be now in this life,
If not the ground, nowhere to be found.
But You came to me, showed me that You care.
The One who removed the thorns that would tear.
~ Verse 2 ~
A dungeon's where I lived all alone,
A very dark place that I called home.
Till that day when you came to open the door made of memories.
Unpleasant memories.
You set me free.
~ Chorus ~
You took the time to remember.
You showed me how much you care.
Now I can move forward,
My eyes gleaming upward.
I'm free.
~ Verse 3 ~
Now as I stand here, a prisoner no more,
I can feel the touch of Your soothing love.
Left behind the dark. You opened that door. Unbound my life.
Brought me into Your light
Where I have since lived free.
~ Repeat Chorus ~
~ Bridge ~
Yes, I'm free.
You saved my life. You brought me to Your place
Where I found peace.
~ Chorus 2 ~
Lord, You know
I can say that
I have been near Heaven.
I learned how to fly.
I once rode a rainbow
I pushed the wind aside.
You who turned a river,
The One who calmed the sea,
You showed me a mountain
Overcome, free in peace.
~ Chorus 3 ~
I have been near Heaven.
I learned how to fly.
You showed me a mountain
Overcome, free in peace.
~ Ending ~
I have been near Heaven.
