About Gaither Vocal Band
“The Gaither Vocal Band is an American southern gospel vocal group, named after its founder and leader Bill Gaither. Founded in the early ’80s, Gaither Vocal Band is one of America’s leading faith-based vocal groups. While Gaither remained the only original member of the ensemble, many well-regarded CCM/gospel singers have passed through the band’s ranks, including Russ Taff, Guy Penrod, Wes Hampton, Michael English, Mark Lowry, and David Phelps. On March 1, 2017, it was announced that the Gaither Vocal Band lineup consisted of Reggie Smith, Wes Hampton, Adam Crabb, Todd Suttles, and Bill Gaither. Although the group started out recording contemporary Christian music in the 1980s, it became known for southern gospel after the popularity of the Gaither Homecoming videos.” (Source: Wikipedia)
Glorious Freedom Lyrics
Gaither Vocal Band
1. Once i was bound by sin’s galling fetters
Chained like a slave i struggledin vain
But i received thy glorious freedom
When Jesus broke my fetters in twain
Glorious freedom, wonderful freedom
No more in chains of sin i repine
Jesus the glorious.He must be faithful
Now and forever-He shall be mine
2. Freedom from all the canal affections
Freedom from envy, hatred and strife
Freedom from vain and worldly amb
Freedom fromall that saddened my life.
3. Freedom from pride and all sinful follies
Freedom from love and glitter gold
Freedom from evil temper and anger
Glorious freedom rapture untold
4. Freedom from fear with all of its torments
Freedom from care with all of its pain,
freedom in Christ, my blessed Redeemer,
He who has rent my fetters in twain

This group of Gaither Vocal Band can’t be beat. They are wonderful and I call them the Dream Team. Maybe there was too much talent on one stage, but for the 5 years they were all together, they were heavenly. All the Vocal Bands have been and are good but this group was over the top. Thank you all for the time you gave your public.
