Tune: Hyfrydol
(\'Alleluia! Sing to Jesus\')
Acts 16 v.25-34
*********
In Philippi, Paul, Silas, they
In a prison did sing, pray
And at midnight a great earthquake
Foundations of place did shake
And all prison doors were open
All prisoners chains loosed then
Keeper of prison awaking
Dis witness amazing thing
He drew his sword, was about to
Kill himself, for this he knew
he had not guarded prison well
Poor report of him would tell
He supposed prisoners had fled
But with loud voice Paul then said
Do yourself no harm, we all be
Here in our cells, come, look, see
Keeper asked for a light, then ran
In to the cell, saw each man
There, and came trembling, and di fall
Down before Paul, Silas, all
Brough them out of prison cell, free
Sirs, What must I do to be
Saved? They said, Believe now upon
The Lord Jesus Christ, God\'s Son
And so you shall be saved, and your
Whole household shall be saved sure
They spake to him word of the Lord
And to household, they assured
Of salvation, and the keeper
Kindness on them did confer
Washed their wounds received from beatings
Comforted them with good things
Then he and all his house baptised
Were straightaway, none denied
And when he them then brought into
His house he gave them food too
And rejoiced, in god believing
Salvation all receiving
Rejoiced with all his house that day
Knowing Christ the Life, Truth, Way
