Lyrics

There’s a prison of the heart, I know it all too well,
Despair’s closin’ in, in this darkened cell I dwell.
Who can deliver me, set my weary spirit free?
I hear Jesus call, “My child, I’m the one with the key.” (Pre-Chorus)
I didn’t come for the healthy, but the wounded soul,
Bound by pain and loss, for a heart that ain’t whole. (Chorus)
I will deliver you, I’ll open up your cell,
Set your spirit free, child, I’ll make you well.
O child of mine, you’ll find peace divine,
Free indeed you’ll be, set my soul free. (Verse 2)
I won’t leave you here, locked in this prison cell,
I’ll heal your soul, my child, I’ll make you well.
When I open up your heart, your spirit set free,
O child of mine, what peace you’ll find, free indeed you’ll be. (Pre-Chorus)
I didn’t come for the healthy, but the wounded soul,
Bound by pain and loss, for a heart that ain’t whole. (Chorus)
I will deliver you, I’ll open up your cell,
Set your spirit free, child, I’ll make you well.
O child of mine, you’ll find peace divine,
Free indeed you’ll be, set my soul free. (Bridge)
O child, can you hear me? I hold the key!
No darkened cell, no pain, can keep you from me.
I’ll break the chains of despair, heal your soul, set you free,
Step out to peace, child, free indeed you’ll be. (Chorus)
I will deliver you, I’ll open up your cell,
Set your spirit free, child, I’ll make you well.
O child of mine, you’ll find peace divine,
Free indeed you’ll be, set my soul free. (Outro)
There was a prison of the heart, now I’m free indeed,
Jesus holds the key, my soul’s healed, I’m free.
O child of mine, I’ve found my peace,
Set my soul free, I’m free indeed.
