The Prisoner
Author: Newton Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #288 (1844) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: When the poor prisoner, through a grate Lyrics: 1 When the poor prisoner, through a grate,
Sees others walk at large,
How does he mourn his lonely state,
And long for a discharge!
2 Thus I, confined in unbelief,
My loss of freedom mourn;
And spend my hours in fruitless grief,
Until my Lord return.
3 The beam of day which pierces through
The gloom in which I dwell,
Only discloses to my view
The horrors of my cell.
4 [Ah! how my pensive spirit faints,
To think of former days,
When I could triumph with the saints,
And join their songs of praise!]
5 Dear Saviour, for thy mercy’s sake,
My strong, my only plea,
These gates and bars in pieces break,
And set the prisoner free. Topics: Tribulation and Inconstancy of Mind Languages: English
