God Has Risen Lyrics by Chris Burns

Wake up the Wind

2016

[Verse 1]
O God, the nations have invaded
Your inheritance and the Holy Place
Jerusalem is almost in ruins
And most men just turn away

[Refrain]
How long, O Lord, will You be angry?
How long, O Lord, will You hide Your face?

[Pre-Chorus]
Then the Lord awoke
As if from a sleep
Like a warrior overcome with wine
And He drove back
His adversaries
And He smote them on their [?]

[Chorus]
For God has risen, His enemies have fled
And those who hate Him will run before His dread
For the fires are burning that purify the heart
And the shouts of the righteous is just about to start

[Verse 2]
Oh, God makes His stand in His own conquered nation
And He will judge in the midst of kings
And there is a shaking coming to this generation
Wind that change will blow all things

[Refrain]
How long, O Lord, will You watch injustice?
How long, O Lord, will You hide Your face?

[Pre-Chorus]
And then the Lord awoke
As if from a sleep
Like a warrior overcome with wine
And He drove back
His adversaries
And He smote them on their [?]

[Chorus]
For God has risen, His enemies have fled
And those who hate Him will run before His dread
For the fires are burning that purifies the heart
And the shouts of the righteous is just about to start

[Post-Chorus]
We give You glory, Lord
Release Your Word
Release Your glory, Lord

[Interlude]

[Spontaneous]
We worship tonight
You are the God above all gods

[Bridge]
Everything will bow down, bow down
In the presence of the Lord
Everything will bow down, bow down
In the presence of the Lord
Everything will bow down, bow down
In the presence of the Lord, yeah!

[Spontaneous]
Will things seem the worst when they seem like there's no hope
When darkness is great in the earth
Seems the heavens are [?] and prayers go unanswered
I tell you, there's a time
Moses is taught by the Lord
To go to Pharaoh and say, "Let My people go"
Moses goes and he says what the Lord told him to say
And then Pharaoh denies his request and he makes him work harder than they did before
And Moses goes back to the Lord
Says, "Why did you even speak?
Why did You even tell me these things?
Seems like it got worse than it was before"

[Tag]
Then the Lord says, "Now watch what I'm gonna do
Now watch what I'm gonna do
Now watch what I'm gonna do
Now watch what I'm doing
And He says, "Now watch what I'm gonna do
Now watch what I'm gonna do
Now watch what I'm gonna do
Now watch, now watch"
He said, "Now watch, I'm gonna do
Now watch, I'm gonna do
Now watch, I'm gonna do"
He said, "Now watch"

[Pre-Chorus]
And then the Lord awoke
As if from a sleep
Like a warrior overcome with wine
And He drove back
His adversaries
And He smote them on their [?]

[Chorus]
For God has rise, His enemies have fled
And those who hate Him will run before His dread
For the fires are burning that purify the heart
And the shouts of the righteous is just about to start

[Outro]
Lord, we give You almighty praise
We now watch You are doing, God
