Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Tennessee

We live in Tn had a judgment against us in 2006 for a unpaid credit card they then put a lien on our house. Can you tell me how long this lien is good for as we are in our late 60's & don't want our daughter to have to deal with this.

The lien is good for 10 years and can be renewed. If the judgment isn't against both husband and wife but the property is owned by both, their judgment only attaches the survivorship interest of the judgment debtor.
