Praise Opens Prisons

By Zach Williams

Lyrics

Are you down? Smiling but empty

Anxious and heavy...Alone in the crowd 


Are you bound? Lost in addiction

Ya can’t seem to kick it ...Well I know a way out 


So if you’re ready for a breakthrough

There’s one waiting in this place

No more shackles no more shadows no more shame 


This is where the walls shake

This is where the ground quakes

This will be your jail break...Praise opens prisons

Feels those chains get looser

Feel your joy get truer...Glory hallelujah

Praise opens prisons


I have lived...Both sides of the story

Rock bottom and glory...So, I understand 


Brother it’s time...To lay down your burdens

Sister, you’re hurtin’...So, lift up your hands 


Someone shout a hallelujah

Someone lift a song of praise

We can open up the heavens

If we call on Jesus’ name

And if you’re ready for a breakthrough

There’s one waiting in this place 

No more shackles no more shadows no more shame 


Gonna feel those chains get looser

Gonna feel your joy get truer...Praise opens prisons

Sing it louder...Louder and Louder

Sing it louder...Praise opens prisons
