Old Version
The Stone’s Been Rolled Away
Geoff Bullock
Verse 1:
I’ve been forgiven
I’ve been set free
Restored and sanctified
In Christ I’ve been released
And I am free
The stone’s been rolled away
And I am free
The stone’s been rolled away
Verse 2:
I’ve been delivered
I’ve been released
Been washed and purified
My God has set me free
I’ve been released
The stone’s been rolled away
I’ve been released
The stone’s been rolled away
Chorus:
Singing glory, singing glory Singing glory
Restored and sanctified
The stone’s been rolled away

Verse One:
I’ve been forgiven; I’ve been set free,
Restored and reconciled
In Christ I’ve been released
And I am free,
The stone’s been rolled away.
My heart’s been softened, my eyes now see,
My soul is full of light and life,
For grace has set me free
I’ve been released,
The stone’s been rolled away.
Chorus:
Singing glory, singing glory,
Glory,
The stone’s been rolled away.
Verse Two:
I’ve been accepted, I’ve been embraced
In love I’m lifted up,
In Christ I see God’s face
And now I see,
The stone’s been rolled away.
So overwhelming, such perfect love,
In mercy and forgiveness
By grace his kingdom comes
And I am loved,
The stone’s been rolled away.
