I've been down and out wondering what it all about
  So many pressures and the burden seemed too much for me to bear
  I tried to fight it, but there were shackles on my hands
  Tried to deny it, 'til oppression took command
  Turned to the Savior and He opened up my eyes
  It caught me by surprise, told me somethin' that was no lie
  Chorus:
  It's a good time, a good time to be free
  It's a good time, time to get free inside
  It's a good time, a good time to believe
  It's a good time, time to get free inside
  Now you're down and out wondering what your life's about
  Try to laugh your fears away, so you party everyday
  What you are feeling, there ain't nothing new to find
  What you don't know is, your life is on the line
  Time to discover, there's so much more to this than just the way you live
  I know someone with freedom to give
  (chorus)
  So let your spirit hear, and put your mind behind
  There's a freedom that only in Him you'll find
  If you heed the call you will have all you need
  'Cause who the Son sets free you know is free, free indeed
  (chorus)
  What do you want to do with your life
  Its up to you, you've got to decide
  There's freedom here if you want it, just make up your mind
  It is a good time
  (chorus)
  (bridge)
  (chorus out)
