"Happy In Prison" lyrics - THE CARTER FAMILY

I am happy in a prison
Yes, I'm happy anywhere
In my soul my savior's risen
Of 10,000 he is fair

Glory, glory, hallelujah
Sinners lay your burdens down
Glory, glory, hallelujah
For a cross receive a crown

[Instrumental break]

When the food is low and failing
And the children bare for clothes
I look up to father's healing
For I know my savior knows

I am happy in a prison
Yes, I'm happy anywhere
In my soul my savior's risen
Of 10,000 he is fair

[Instrumental break]

Any cost, a fire is burning
And its coming draweth nigh
But I'm happy, always happy
Though in prison I must die

I am happy in a prison
Yes, I'm happy anywhere
In my soul my savior's risen
Of 10,000 he is fair
