 ... Author Unknown
- Today I
went into a prison
- Where I
looked on anguish and strife
- But the
message I learned from a convict
there
- I'll
remember the rest of my life.
- The
prisoner said he was contented
- In paying
society's due.
- "It's
easy to render to Caesar", he
said,
- "When
you have the Master with you".
- Oh, I've
seen his anger fly out of hand
- For he
was just human you see
- Than ask
both offended and God to forgive
- Unashamed
when bending his knee.
- Many long
years it has been
- Since I
had the faith that this convict has
shown
- And
though I was with him for only a
while
- His
message has pointed me home.
- Yes,
today I went into a prison
- And saw
to my disbelief
- The face
of our Savior Lord Jesus
- Worn on
the face of a thief.
