Watchman Lyrics by Don Potter

Since the Fall

2006

[Instrumental Intro]
\n
\n[Verse 1]
\nGod has placed a watchman on your walls, O Jerusalem
\nThey will not be silent day or night; of the Lord, they make constant mention
\nThey will give no sleep to their eyes
\nUntil God establishes grace
\nThere will be no peace in their nights
\nUntil the Lord makes Jerusalem a praise
\nHe has sworn it by His strength
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nBehold, the Lord has proclaimed this to the ends of the earth
\nAnd though there's fear in your streets, tonight something's already birthed
\nA tabernacle is rising right now
\nIn the hearts of those who believe
\nThere's the sound of a freedom shout
\nRising up from under your feet
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nIf you lift up your voices and call on the Lord, He will come
\nThen the nations will see that salvation comes from Zion
\nOh, no more waiting, the anointing of God has begun
\nOh, blind eyes will see as the captives go free
\nIf you lift up your voices, He'll come
\n
\n[Post-Chorus]
\nOh, come, Lord!
\n
\n[Verse 3]
\nFaith is the hope and the substance of things we cannot see
\nWorship the Lord as David did, dance yourselves free
\nThere's a glory falling to Earth
\nAs Your praises are lifted on high
\nAll creation is waiting right now
\nFor voices from Earth to arise
\nOh, will they arise?
\n
\n[Verse 4]
\nGod has placed a watchman on our walls, O America
\nWill we come when we hear the call? There's still grace enough to save us
\n"For My namesake I'll hold My wrath
\nFor My praise I will turn it from you"
\nO God, let this be our epitaph
\nThat we cried out and cried out to You
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nIf we lift up our voices and call on the Lord, He will come
\nThen the nations will see that salvation comes from Zion
\nOh, no more waiting, the anointing of God has begun
\nOh, blind eyes will see as the captives go free
\nIf we lift up our voices, He'll come
\n
\n[Post-Chorus]
\nOh, ooh
\nLift our voices up
\nCry out to Jesus
\n
\n[Instrumental Outro]\n\n
