Hi Laurie,

Found it! Words my Oswald J. Smith, music by Alfred H. Ackley.

1.
Fairest of ten thousand is Jesus Christ, my Savior,
The Lily of the Valley, The Bright and Morning Star.
He is all my glory, and in this heart of mine
Forevermore I'm singing a song of love divine.

Refrain
'Tis the song of the soul set free,
And its melody is ringing.
'Tis the song of the soul set free;
Joy and peace to me it's bringing.
'Tis the song of the soul set free;
And my heart is ever singing,
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! The song of the soul set free!

2.
Once my heart was burdened, but now I am forgiven,
And with a song of gladness, I'm on my way to heav'n.
Christ is my Redeemer; my Song of Songs is He.
My Savior, Lord, and Master--to Him my praise shall be.

3.
When He came to save me, He set the joybells ringing,
And now I'm ever singing, For Christ has ransomed me.
Once I lived in darkenss; the light I could not see.
But now I sing His praises, for He was set me free.

4.
Angels cannot sing it--this song of joy and freedom,
For mortals only know it, the ransomed and the free.
Slaves were they in bondage and deepest misery;
But now they sing triumphant their songs of liberty.

Hope it helps, and God bless!
Steve

Thanks for the lyrics to "Song of the Soul Set Free." Can you tell me if any sheet music is available? Also, a few years ago I found a Website that had audio for a number of songs by Ed Lyman, Flo Price, The White Sisters - and about 20 other artists from the 50's and 60's. Can you direct me to this? I can't find it!

Thanks so much for your help. May our Lord bless your ministry!
