Well we've all heard the sermon seen
|
The preachers or worshipped the stage
|
Heard the new manifesto? It's all questions no solutions at all
|
Well, you're out on your own now, always have been
|
Just look at your friends
|
Break the surface to daylight
|
Strength will flow through our unity.
|
|
There is a traitor in our midst
|
And when we rise we will be betrayed
|
They are the wolves in sheep's clothing
|
Take the place at the back of the fold
|
All this talk about freedom
|
Will be tainted with blood (it's your life)
|
Put this cross on your back child
|
Tread the long weary trail to the top of the hill
|
|
ARISE! GET OFF YOUR KNEES!
|
|
There's some hard times coming down
|
There's the smell of revolution on the wind
|
Well, we're grinding down our axes
|
Telling tales round the bonfire at night
|
We will set out with a fire in our hearts
|
When this darkness gives way to the dawn
|
In the light we're united as one
|
For the kingdom of heaven must be taken by storm!
|
|
ARISE! GET OFF YOUR KNEES!
|
STAND UP!
|

Arise!
