Wake up! Wake up!

The wolves are biting
The wolves are clawing and snatching up the sheep
For if we speak without the truth upon our lips
We're giving in and we’re falling fast asleep

Creating more prodigals
More jaded and worn
Creating more prodigals
More jaded and worn

We organize and strategize
Yet we're keeping our mouths shut
(Keeping our mouths shut)
For we are actors without action
When the cost factors no reaction
We hide under roof and steeple
'Cuz we're afraid of broken people

The wolves are biting
The wolves are clawing and snatching up the sheep
For if we speak without the truth upon our lips
We're giving in and we’re falling fast asleep

Wake up! Wake up!

So if faith comes by hearing
Why not speaking by preaching?
Though my fear is the half truths
That the many are teaching

The world is lining you up and bids you to come
To live on the edge till your heart it is numb
Lining you up and bids you farewell
To look like the righteous but still live like hell

Are we fighting?
Are we fighting or are we asleep?
Are we dying?
Are we dying to aid the sheep?

We compromise in our own eyes
Yet we're keeping our mouths shut
(Keeping our mouths shut)
For we are actors without action
When the cost factors no reaction
We hide under roof and steeple
'Cuz we're afraid of broken people

The wolves are biting
The wolves are clawing and snatching up the sheep
For if we speak without the truth upon our lips
We're giving in and we’re falling fast asleep

So are we crying?
So are we crying to all the lost and dead?
Behold! The lamb of God who takes away
The sins of the whole world by his blood shed

Making straight the way
The way of the Lord
Making straight the way
The way of the Lord

“All of your guilt and all of the wrath of God against you is transferred to Him and he legally bears it away. Do you believe that Jesus Christ really is willing? That you have a sin bearer that takes away all sin, past, present and future!”
