A
come back to the safety where you belong
D
you prisoners of hope - return to your strongholds
A                                                 E
the king is still - the king is still on the throne
A
come captives and exiles- overwhelmed
D
attracted by the beauty of a distant realm
A                                                       E
where the king is still - the king is still on the throne


[Chorus]
          D        A        E
and we'll make our way back home
        D       A            E
for the king is still on the throne


[Verse 2]
A
by these rivers in our imprisonments
D
we won't hang up our stringed instruments
A                                                     E
for the king is still - the king is still on the throne
A
oh hasten the day - awaken the dawn
D
strengthened by the phrases of redemption's song
A                                                 E
the king is still - the king is still on the throne


[Chorus]
          D        A        E
and we'll make our way back home
        D       A            E
for the king is still on the throne


[Bridge]
A
though we're captives here today
D
daughter wipe those tears away
A
we are prisoners of hope
E
we are prisoners of hope


[Chorus]
          D        A        E
and we'll make our way back home
        D       A            E
for the king is still on the throne
          D        A        E
and we'll make our way back home
        D       A            E
for the king is still on the throne
