Lyrics
I got the key to the kingdom
And the devil can't do me no harm
I got the key to the kingdom
And the devil can't do me no harm
Well, you take old prophet Daniel
They put him in the lion's den
On account of the hundred and twenty princes
All being so full of sin
Well, they pu old Daniel in the lion's den
And he stayed there all night long
On account of the hundred and twenty princes
And them being so full of sin
Daniel had the key to the kingdom
And the devil couldn't do him no harm
Had the key to the kingdom
Well, they put old Daniel in the lion's den
And he stayed there all night long
And Darius he couldn't sleep that night
'Cause he knowed they treated Daniel wrong
But Daniel had the key to the kingdom
And the devil couldn't do him no harm
Had the key to the kingdom
And the devil couldn't do him no harm
Oh, Darius he come to the lion's den
And he called Daniel good and stout
And Daniel got up like a child of God
And then come walkin' out
Well, Daniel had the key to the kingdom
And the devil couldn't do him no harm
Had the key to the kingdom
And the devil couldn't do him no harm
Well, the princes came down that morning
And they found old Daniel gone
And the king he put 'em in the lion's den
And the lion consumed their bones
He had the key to the kingdom
And the devil couldn't do him no harm
He had the key to the kingdom
And the devil couldn't do him no harm
Oh, Christ is the Key to the Kingdom
Faith unlocks the door
If you every been truly converted
You'll make it into Heaven's shore
I got the key to the kingdom
And the devil can't do me no harm
I got the key to the kingdom
And the devil can't do me no harm
Well, Daniel was one of God's prophets
And they knew old Daniel would pray
Well, if they didn't want him over there
They wanted him out of the way
But Daniel had the key to the kingdom
And the devil couldn't do him no harm
He had the key to the kingdom
And the devil couldn't do him no harm
