There once was a time
When I was dead inside
I cursed the Lord for the day I was born
And prayed to the Devil to die Just when I thought the Devil had won
Someone opened up the door
The King of kings, Lord of lords
I found Jesus on the jailhouse floor Now, he broke the chains that bound me, and now Im free
Today Im right where Mama prayed Id be
Im down on my knees, now I believe
What Mama knew for sure
Hes King of kings, Lord of lords
I found Jesus on the jailhouse floor Now, if youre in trouble
Friend, let me tell you what to do
Ill tell you what Hes done for me
And I know what Hell do for you It makes no difference what youve done
Youve a friend in the One that I adore
The King of kings, Lord of lords
I found Jesus on the jailhouse floor Now, he broke the chains that bound me, and now Im free
Today Im right where Mama prayed Id be
Im down on my knees, now I believe
What Mama knew for sure
Hes King of kings, Lord of lords
I found Jesus on the jailhouse floor
Hes King of kings, Lord of lords
I found Jesus on the jailhouse floor
