Preaching Brought by Prison Break

"But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said, Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life" (Acts 5:19,20).

Prison doors could not prevail,
Nor could the arm of strife,
Neither threats of men so frail,
Against the words of life.

The angel opened prison doors
And brought forth preachers then,
And God today still likewise pours
His Spirit upon men.

For God still gives His liberty,
To go, to stand, and speak
The words of truth that made us free
When we were bound and weak.

So let us go where God will send
With all the words He gives
And preach with freedom to the end
Because our Savior lives!
