[VERSE 1]
These are the words of the One who holds
Seven Spirits and the stars of gold
I know your name, the life you claim
But breath has left your hidden frame
Your works appear complete and strong
But truth reveals what has gone wrong
The outer light still fills the room
Yet underneath, the heart is tombed
[PRE CHORUS]
Wake from the sleep
Strengthen what stays
What still remains is slipping away
I have not found
Your works made whole
Before the presence of My God
[CHORUS]
Wake the dead
Rise again
Hold the truth you once confessed
Guard the word
Do not forget
Turn before the night descends
Wake the dead
Hear the call
I will come unknown to all
Clothed in white
Stand with Me
Names preserved eternally
[VERSE 2]
Remember how the word was heard
Return again to what you learned
Obey the voice that once was clear
Repent before the hour draws near
If you remain asleep inside
I will come like a thief in stride
You will not know the day or hour
When I arrive in sudden power
[PRE CHORUS]
Yet there are souls
Unstained, alive
Garments unsoiled before My eyes
They walk with Me
Because they stand
Faithful within a faithless land
[CHORUS]
Wake the dead
Rise again
Hold the truth you once confessed
Guard the word
Do not forget
Turn before the night descends
Wake the dead
Hear the call
I will come unknown to all
Clothed in white
Stand with Me
Names preserved eternally
[BRIDGE]
The one who overcomes will wear
White garments bright beyond compare
I will not blot the faithful name
The Book of Life keeps every name
Before My Father I will speak
Before the angels strong and meek
Confessing those who stand as Mine
Held by grace, preserved in time
He who hears, receive the sound
Let the Spirit’s voice resound
Wake now
Wake now
Wake now
Wake now
[FINAL CHORUS]
Wake the dead
Rise and stand
Strengthen what is left at hand
Keep the word
Turn and see
Life restored in purity
Wake the dead
Hear My voice
Faithfulness is still your choice
Walk in white
Endure with Me
Names secured eternally
