Wake up, Church. Rise up, Saint.
/Wake up, Church
Rise up, Saint
Run and not grow weary
Walk and not faint
We can only do this
As we wait on Him
Saying yes to obedience
Saying no to sin
Wait with sweet anticipation
For all He wants to do
He could do all Himself
But He uses me and you
So seek His face
And submit to His Way
Read His Word
Worship and Pray
And the things of this world
Will grow strangely dim
Less attractive
Less like Him
You see, more and more
The church is caving
Not standing for Biblical Truth
Satisfying what the flesh is craving
Wake up, Church
Rise up, Saint
Run and not grow weary
Walk and not faint
There is a distinction
And we must make it known
Look different than the world
Because this world is not our home
Others long to see the difference
Syncretism will never satisfy
If God’s ways are higher
We can’t stoop and bend to lies
To live out being set apart
We must stand up and speak out
Love and serve others, yes
But tell them what it’s all about
Point them to the Word with our words
Urge them to live by God’s standard alone
That’s the only way to really love others
The only way to truly make Him known
So know His Word
And do what it says
To bring Glory to Him
Not just to impress
Wake up, Church
Rise up, Saint
Run and not grow weary
Walk and not faint
