Rescue The Prisoner - Twila Paris

See the insolent man standing on the street

Hear the thundering sound of rebellious feet

Demanding rights, defending wrong

It can bring the righteous blood to boil

And we ask, «Oh Lord, how long?

Oh, Lord, how long?"

This is not the enemy

Flesh and blood have been deceived

When we move beyond the anger

We will see

We’ve got to rescue the prisoner

Rescue the prisoner

Prisoner of war

That’s what He came here for

Rescue the prisoner

Rescue the prisoner

In the beautiful land, hear the rivers cry

See the innocent ones learning well a lie

«There is no right, there is no wrong»

It can almost make your blood run cold

And we pray, «Lord, make us strong

Lord, make us strong»

This is not the enemy

Jesus died to make them free

Love will reach behind the danger

Come with me

We’ve got to rescue the prisoner

Rescue the prisoner

Prisoner of war

That’s what He came here for

Rescue the prisoner

Rescue the prisoner

We are called to be a light

That even blinded eyes can see

To break the chains

To bind the wounds

And to proclaim the captive free

Rescue the prisoner

Rescue the prisoner

Pray for the prisoner

Rescue the prisoner

Rescue the prisoner

Pray for the prisoner

Rescue the prisoner
