Joseph’s master took him, and put him into the prison, a place where the king’s prisoners were bound: and he was there in the prison. But the Lord was with Joseph, and showed him mercy, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. (Gen. 39:20‑21) |
Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (Matt. 5:10) |
Oh, happy those who see In poverty and pain, In weakness and in toil, Their Father’s golden chain; Who feel no prison walls Though shut in narrow ways, And though in darkness fettered fast Can still rejoice and praise; From sin’s dread bondage bought, They own their Master’s word; They bear the brand of Christ, Blest prisoners of the Lord! |
