Tho' It's Midnight

When I read of Paul and Silas
 In that jail so long ago
 I can see this truth so glorious—
 That my Father wants me to know
 There are times the pain seems endless
 And my suff'ring seems so wrong
 But my Savior bears each sorrow
 And He gives to me a song
 Tho' it's midnight in the prison
 My loving Father reigns in heaven
 His arms enfold me
 The bars can't hold me
 When I lift my voice and sing His song of praise!
 Tho' my body's held in shackles
 Christ has set my spirit free
 Chains are broken
 Doors fly open
 Tho' it's midnight
 Look to Jesus if you're wounded
 If you're beaten down by sin
 Do not grieve alone in darkness
 For your Savior wants to come in
 He will fill your heart with music
 That will last throughout the night
 He will drive away the darkness—
 Ev'ry wrong will be made right
 Tho' it's midnight (tho' it's midnight)
 In the prison (in the prison)
 My loving Father reigns in heaven
 His arms enfold me (His arms enfold me)
 The bars can't hold me (the bars can't hold me)
 When I lift my voice and sing His song of praise! (I will sing His song of praise!)
 Tho' my body's held in shackles
 Christ has set my spirit free
 Chains are broken
 Doors fly open
 Tho' it's midnight
 Tho' it's midnight (tho' it's midnight)
 In the prison (in the prison)
 My loving Father reigns in heaven (my Father reigns in heaven)
 His arms enfold me (His arms enfold me)
 The bars can't hold me (the bars can't hold me)
 When I lift my voice and sing His song of praise!
 Tho' my body's held in shackles
 Christ has set my spirit free
 Chains are broken
 Doors fly open
 Tho' it's midnight
 Tho' it's midnight (tho' it's midnight)
 Tho' it's midnight (tho' it's midnight)
 I will praise my God
 Tho' it's midnight (tho' it's midnight)
