There once was a time when I was dead insideI cussed the Lord for the day I was bornAnd prayed to the Devil to dieJust when I thought the Devil had wonSomeone opened up the doorThe King of kingsLord of lordsI found Jesus on the jailhouse floorNow, he broke the chains that bound me, and now I’m freeToday I’m right where MamaPrayed I’d beI’m down on my kneesNow I believeWhat Mama knew for sureHe’s King of kingsLord of lordsI found Jesus on the jailhouse floorNow, if you’re in trouble friend, let me tell you what to doI’ll tell you what he’s done for meAnd I know what he’ll do for youIt makes no difference what you’ve doneYou’ve a friend in the One that I adoreThe King of kingsLord of lordsI found Jesus on the jailhouse floorNow, he broke the chains that bound me, and now I’m freeToday I’m right where MamaPrayed I’d beI’m down on my kneesNow I believeWhat Mama knew for sureHe’s King of kingsLord of lordsI found Jesus on the jailhouse floorHe’s King of kingsLord of lords
