God Has Risen Lyrics by Don Potter

Since the Fall

2006

[Verse 1]
\nO God, the nations have invaded
\nYour inheritance and the holy place
\nJerusalem is almost in ruins
\nWhile most men just turn away
\n
\n[Refrain]
\nHow long, O Lord, will You be angry?
\nAnd how long, O Lord, will You hide Your face?
\n
\n[Pre-Chorus]
\nThen the Lord awoke, as if from a sleep
\nLike a warrior overcome with wine
\nAnd He drove back His adversaries
\nAnd He smote them on their parts behind
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nOh, for God has risen; His enemies have fled
\nAnd those who hate Him will run before His dread
\nFor the fires are burning that purifies the heart
\nAnd the shout of the righteous is just about to start
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nGod takes His stand in His own congregation
\nHe will judge in the midst of kings
\nThere is a shaking coming to this generation
\nThe winds of change will blow all things
\n
\n[Refrain]
\nHow long, O Lord, will You watch injustice?
\nHow long, O Lord, will You hide Your face?
\n
\n[Pre-Chorus]
\nThen the Lord awoke, as if from a sleep
\nLike a warrior overcome with wine
\nAnd He drove back His adversaries
\nAnd He smote them on their parts behind
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nOh!
\nFor God has risen; His enemies have fled
\nAnd those who hate Him will run before His dread
\nFor the fires are burning that purifies the heart
\nAnd the shout of the righteous is just about to start
\n
\n[Guitar Solo]
\n
\n[Interlude]
\nThese are all from the scriptures
\nThey're from the Psalms
\nThe scripture says that God will wake suddenly
\nLike a warrior overcome wine
\nAnd He will drive back His adversaries
\nHe will smite them on their parts behind
\nHa-ha-ha!
\nThat's our God!
\nThat's our King!
\nThat's our Master!
\nHallelujah!
\n
\n[Pre-Chorus]
\nThen the Lord awoke, as if in a sleep
\nLike a warrior overcome with wine
\nAnd He drove back His adversaries
\nAnd He smote them on their parts behind
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nYes, for God has risen; His enemies have fled
\nAnd those who hate Him will run before His dread
\nFor the fires are burning that purifies the heart
\nAnd the shout of the righteous is just about to start\n\n
