Lyrics
AWAKE AND ARISE
1. Behold the fields are white unto harvest, stretching before you as far as the eye can see. With a heart firm and steady, and a sickle at the ready, on our feet the shoes of the Gospel of peace.
2. Behold the sinner needing God's salvation. Weeping awaits them, wailing and gnashing of teeth. They're deceived by the liar, the lake of burning fire, is calling them to their destiny.
Middle : Awake and arise with love in your eyes, let them know there's forgiveness in Christ. God sent forth His Son to redeem ev'ryone, let us win, souls for Him and be wise. Let us win, souls for Him and be wise.
3. Behold the Word of life is within you, longing to reach everyone who has gone astray. In a world full of sorrow, let's not wait for tomorrow, the salvation of the Lord is for today.
Middle : Awake and arise with love in your eyes, let them know there's forgiveness in Christ. God sent forth His Son to redeem ev'ryone, let us win, souls for Him and be wise. Let us win, souls for Him and be wise. Awake and arise with love in your eyes, let them know there's forgiveness in Christ. God sent forth His Son to redeem everyone, let us win, souls for Him and be wise. Let us win, souls for Him and be wise. Let us win, souls for Him and be wise. (Repeat and fade).
