We've sat silent for too long While the darkness ever strong Cast a shadow on this land But we're the children of the light. We have hope that's burning bright. We weren't made to cower We were made to stand. Let the church arise. Let us stand for what is holy Let us stand for what is holy, Let us stand for what is right. And live our lives as a beacon in the night No, we will not compromise. Let the church Let the church Let the church arise All the trouble in these times Doesn't catch God by surprise. He's still sovereign over all, So let the ones who bear his name Be bold and unashamed, And with expectation answer when he calls. Let the church arise. Let us stand for what is holy Let us stand for what is right. And live our lives as a beacon in the night. No, we will not compromise Let the church Let the Church Let the church arise These are days we must choose to be A shining light for the world to be. Let the church arise Let us stand for what is holy, Let us stand for what is right. And live our lives as a beacon in the night. No, we will not compromise Let the church Let the church Let the church Let the church arise
