The jailer is quite an interesting tale
In the Bible, in the tail
The prisoners could've bailed
But didn't, being jailed.
They obeyed authority
Jailed by majority
Happily singing songs to Him,
And had a crowd, in the dim.

Your rhymes are awkward,
Your meter lacks beat,
But your story selection
Is really a treat!
So I'll sing your praises
As Paul and Silas sang hymns
To cheer their companions
As the prison light dims.
