Prison doors were opened
For Peter and for Paul,
And for the coat-clad Joseph,
For Daniel, saved from a lion’s maul.
For Alma and for Amulek,
Nephi and Lehi too;
Why not countless others
Locked away from freedom’s view?
Why not brave Abinadi?
Or Joseph and Hyrum Smith?
Why not Christians in catacombs,
Or prisoners in Auschwitz?
Why was the prison door opened
For Barabbas, a murderer at heart,
While the innocent Christ was crucified,
One in whom there was no fault?
Why not those entrapped today
In prisons of mortal pain;
Why are the doors opened for a few,
While millions suffer long in vain?
Yet still the promise has been made,
And believe in it we must__
That all prison doors will someday open
If in God we trust.
Prison doors of pain and grief,
Of tragedy and shame,
Through the mercy of our Lord
All shall be free again.This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard’s global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
