Prisoner Songtext
von Don Potter

There′s been a jailbreak
I'm finally free
Chains on my feet have fallen from me
As I escape these prison walls
I see a man hanging on a cross
He paid the cost

Now I′m a prisoner
Can't explain this mystery
I'm a prisoner
Still trying to be free
I′m a prisoner
I′m just as caught as I ever was
I'm a prisoner of love


When I look up
The cross is gone
I see a throne of grace surrounded by a song
He calls my name
I can′t turn away
Only love can take my heart captive this way
That's why I say

I′m a prisoner
Can't explain this mystery
I′m a prisoner
I don't want to be free
I'm a prisoner
I′m just as caught as I ever was
I′m a prisoner of love

Sometimes I think of those still inside
Struggling with fear and fighting for their lives
I hear a call to go back one day
And stand among the captives and say

I'm a prisoner
Can′t explain this mystery
I'm a prisoner
I don′t want to be free
I'm a prisoner
I′m just as caught as I ever was
I'm a prisoner of love
