Wake The Dead |
Wake the dead, wake the dead |
Take up the call and carry His commission |
Wake the dead, wake the dead |
Don’t be content and just walk away |
Wake up! |
There’s a job to be done |
You’ve got a calling that you haven’t begun |
For too long you’ve been coasting along |
You think salvation is the end of it all |
(The fields are ready but the workers few) |
You’re not heeding the call |
(It's time the body starts to shout the news) |
And wake the world up to God’s invitation |
Wake the dead, wake the dead |
Take up the call and carry His commission |
Wake the dead, wake the dead |
Don’t be content and just walk away |
There’s too much to do to just walk away |
Darkness blinds a new generation |
Searching for its place |
Banished by their own choice of living |
From His shining grace |
(But even with such hardened hearts) |
God cares that they will be found |
(He had a plan right from the start) |
To break their chains by His testimony |
Wake the dead, wake the dead |
Don’t be complacent with your own salvation |
Wake the dead, wake the dead |
Got to lead the lost searching for their way |
Wake the dead, wake the dead |
Take up the call and carry His commission |
Wake the dead, wake the dead |
Don’t be content and just walk away |
There’s too much to do to just walk away |
Wake the dead, wake the dead |
Don’t be complacent with your own salvation |
Wake the dead, wake the dead |
Got to lead the lost searching for their way |
