Lyrics
Written by Carl Hicks Jr. / SESAC [Chorus – Full Choir, Tight Unison] The chains fell quiet The chains fell quiet Peter slept in prison But heaven started moving Guards at the doorway Iron on his hands An angel touched his side And told that man to stand The chains fell quiet The chains fell quiet When the light filled the prison The chains fell quiet [Bridge – Warm Stacked Harmonies] Get up quickly Put your sandals on Wrap your coat around you It is time to move on Peter kept following Still thought it was a dream Door after door opened Without a human key Keep moving Keep moving The Lord has sent relief [Chorus – Choir Snaps, Unexpected Brass Hits] The chains fell quiet The chains fell quiet The church kept praying And heaven started moving Past the first guard Past the second line The iron gate opened At the perfect time The chains fell quiet The chains fell quiet When God sent His angel The chains fell quiet [Bridge – Rhythmic Choir Changes] Locked in Still chosen Bound down Still covered Church prayed God answered Night watch Could not stop Him The gate knew the signal The street made room What looked like an ending Became an escape route Knock at the door Tell them it is me The same one they prayed for Is standing in the street [Repetitive Run – Deep Pocket Groove] Chains down Chains down Chains on the ground Chains down Chains down Didn't make a sound Gate open Gate open Open on its own Gate open Gate open Peter's going home Church prayed Heaven moved Church prayed God came through Prayed all night Kept the light Prayed all night God made it right Walk out Walk out Follow the light Walk out Walk out Freedom tonight [Choir Run – Tight Vocal Changes] Angel came Chains fell Peter rose All was well Guard stood Gate moved Church prayed God proved No key Still open No fight Still chosen No warning Still free God brought Peter To the street [Outro – Smooth Choir Resolution] The prison was guarded The sentence looked near But prayer kept rising And heaven interfered The angel departed Peter finally knew The Lord had delivered him And brought him safely through The chains fell quiet The chains fell quiet [Final Choir Hit] Peter walked out!
