Paul and Silas Song Lyrics in English
In the town of Philippi, under Roman rule,
Paul and Silas preached the Word that’s true.
A demon possessed girl stood in their way
But Paul condemned the spirit that day!
Upset Roman leaders threw them in a cell,
The crowd turned against them, things not looking well,
They punished them in public, and beat them with rods.
Suddenly they were with their feet in the stocks.
I wonder what they’ll do?
Chorus
They sang a song,
Cause to God they belong!
Even in prison, their faith was in the Lord!
They worshiped Jesus
With everything they had.
The chains became their drums,
Their praise was heard.
Be inspired by their faith!
Everybody!
Oh!
Middle of the night, God moved His hand,
Earth shook! The prison door open did stand!
The chains were broken, but they did not flee,
For God’s mighty power all to see.
The jailer is scared, he thought his life is lost,
But Paul and Silas knew the real cost:
Sharing the Word to that man and his fam’
That night all were saved, by God’s own plan.
Remember what they did!
Oh, yeah!
Chorus
They sang a song,
Cause to God they belong!
Even in prison, their faith was in the Lord.
They worshiped Jesus
With everything they had.
The chains became their drums,
Their praise was heard.
Be inspired by their faith!
Yeah!
Oh!
Let’s talk about us!
In life today, storms may come our way,
Darkness and trouble may seek to sway.
For faith is strong, even in strife,
And a song of praise brings light in our lives.
Remember what they did…
SING!
Chorus
They sang a song,
Cause to God they belong!
Even in prison, their faith was in the Lord!
They worshiped Jesus
With everything they had.
The chains became their drums,
Their praise was heard.
Be inspired by their faith!
Again everybody!
They sang a song,
Cause to God they belong!
Even in prison, their faith was in the Lord!
They worshiped Jesus
With everything they had.
The chains became their drums,
Their praise was heard.
Be inspired by their faith!
Let’s go!
Oh!
