Chains

Words and Music by: Joel & Candy Hemphill Wayne Hilton Recorded 1985 Heartwarming Records on The Hemphills EXCITED 1. A preacher named Paul sat in a prison for the gospel that he had proclaimed Near to despair, alone and forgotten, bound by shackles and chains 'Til a friend and a brother came to refresh him, to see he was nourished and fed. Later, remembering, Paul wrote in a letter, and these are the words that I read. Chorus You weren't ashamed of my chains, I needed a friend when you came. The love that you showed and your smile let me know, You weren't ashamed of my chains. 2. I too was bound in fetters of darkness thinking I'd never be free. Bound by chains of sin and self-will as real as chains you can see. Then with compassion, Jesus came to me. Oh what a freedom He brings. Loosed me from all but His love that now holds me. Gladly to Him I can sing. |
