Paulo e Silas

Paul, my friend, I don't understand
What did we do to end up here?
I confess the miracle was so great
I even thought the crowd would stand and applaud us

Silas, I don't know either
Even talking is painful
But my heart is burning with something different
Much bigger than the pain

Paul, we're in prison
The situation is sad, didn't you realize?
The girl was freed by God and we are imprisoned
It's hard to understand

Silas, God doesn't abandon us
I know He entered with us in prison
And now all that's left is to sing
For God to set us free or ease the pain

The story doesn't reveal the hymn that Paul and Silas
Sang in prison but, there's a hymn in the Christian harp that
Brings the image
Of the two singing in prison

Yes, I love the message of the cross
I will proclaim it until I die
I will also carry my cross
Until I exchange it for a crown

Paul, I'm feeling something
Strange, the ground here shook
Silas, I felt it too
It seems like the praise moved God's hand
It's different, I don't feel the pain anymore
And the chains on my feet just broke
Stand up, let's sing out loud
Because God entered this place

He set us free, he set us free
In prison, God entered with them
He set us free, he set us free
An earthquake shook the ground

If you're faithful and have intimacy
He won't abandon you, He's faithful too
Whether in the pit, valley, or furnace
Just worship and victory will come
