“The Snare Is Broken” is based on Psalm 124, a song of deliverance for God’s people when escape seems impossible. From Israel’s rescue in the past to the final conflict over worship, the song reminds us that our safety is not found in human power, but in the Lord who made heaven and earth. When every earthly way seems closed, God can still make a way—and when the snare is finally broken, His faithful people will declare, “We have escaped!”
