There isn't any fences, walls, that hold the glory in,
There are no bars surrounding, to imprison us within.
For Jesus gave to us His key, that opened wide the door,
His death has set us free,
so we can walk through all.



He didn't hide the key, beneath an unknown place,
But, put it in our hearts, inscribed on it, is grace.
We step out now unhindered, no matter where we are,
Though imprisoned by conditions
That seem to block our path.



For, our Saviour dwells inside us, Yes, God now lives within
And He will always finish, whatever He begins.
Our Father has control, our lives are not our own,
He chooses how His glory
From us will best be known.



So, if our bodies are restricted, expect that God's at work
Just as apostle Paul, imprisoned, always spread the word.
No enemy will stop The Lord, despite failure, pain or grief,
No bars can hold us back
From what God says will be.
