A Word

 

Wait for Me My people
Wait and hear My cry
Why should My children
Die?!
All that time in prison
Slaves to the lies
Why do not stir
The love in your heart
Reach out to them
With freedom, with hope
With the Power in
My Name?
Say to the darkened ones
Here is the way!?
You say 'they do not
Listen'
You say 'they will not
Heed'
But I say to you
You are the message
The way is more than words
Live the life I've given you
Flow in freedom's streams
Shine with My Spirit
Teach with My Love
Seek My power
To live with one another
In love and purity
This is the witness
This is their hope
I am your strength
I am one with you
Are you one with Me?
Arise My people!
Clothe yourself with strength!
Show the world My
Salvation
Show the blind My
Light

Yet still you bicker
Still you grumble and
Curse
Like blind men who think
They see
You condemn, you judge
You destroy
How can you free your
Brothers when you yourselves
Are still slaves?
How can you say to others
'Here is the way'
When you yourself
Walk in darkness?

But now I will show
Myself
Now the blind will see
For I Myself will come and
Judge
I Myself will establish
My House
And bring power with My light
And all the world will see it
The path will once again be clear
Then My people will come to me
Then the nations will hear My
Voice

You are destroyed O Babylon!
Nothing can end your plight
Destroyed is your slavery
Your oppression has been
Decreed
And I will not stop
Until all My people are freed!!
