Praise Opens Prisons Songtext
von Zach Williams

Are you down?
Smiling, but empty?
Anxious and heavy?
Alone in the crowd?

Are you bound?
Lost in addiction?
You 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 jailbreak
Praise opens prisons

Feel those chains get looser
Feel your joy get truer
Glory, hallelujah
Praise opens prisons


Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Praise opens prisons
Ooh-ooh

I have lived both sides of the story
Rock bottom and glory, so I understand
And brother, it's time to lay down your burdens
Sister, you're hurtin′, so lift up your hands

This is where the walls shake
This is where the ground quakes
This will be your jailbreak
Praise opens prisons (opens prisons)

Feel those chains get looser
Feel your joy get truer
Glory, hallelujah
Praise opens prisons (oh-oh)

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 (ooh)
There's one waiting in this place (ooh)
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 jailbreak
Praise opens prisons

Feel those chains get looser
Feel your joy get truer
Glory, hallelujah
Praise opens prisons (open prisons)

Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Praise opens prisons
Ooh-ooh
Oh-oh, yeah
Oh-oh, yeah
Praise opens prisons

Gonna feel those chains get looser
Gonna feel your joy get truer
Praise opens prisons
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
Sing it louder, louder and louder
Sing it louder, praise opens prisons
Ooh-ooh-ooh
