Prisoner of Hope by Abigail Miller Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2012

[Verse 1]
Once I was bound in sin
Without a light of hope within
A prisoner of all that I despised
Until one glorious day, when Jesus tore my bars away
He lifted me, and opened up my eyes!
And He gave me His love, perfect rest from above
And I’ll never want to be set free again

[Chorus]
(For now I’m) a prisoner, a prisoner of hope
Bound by cords of love and chains of peace
Jesus has made me free, His prisoner I’ll always be
And from His bonds I’ll never seek release
He gives to me new life I’d never known
I’m willingly a prisoner of hope

[Verse 2]
If you are bound in sin, without a light of hope within
A prisoner of all that you despise
Come to the cross today, let Jesus tear your bars away
He’ll lift you up and open up your eyes
Oh, He offers His love, perfect rest from above
And you’ll never want to be set free again
[Chorus]
(Come be) a prisoner, a prisoner of hope
Bound by cords of love and chains of peace
Jesus has made me free, His prisoner I’ll always be
And from His bonds I’ll never seek release
He gives to me new life I’d never known
I’m willingly a prisoner of hope

[Outro]
Oh, come and be a prisoner of hope
