Be silent and listen to me,
Let the people to gain new strength;
Open up your eyes as to see,
How to hang on at any length.
Let them come near who try to seek,
Impartial not holding a grudge;
So when they come near let them speak,
Coming together as to judge.
Who has raised you up from the east,
Looking back into history;
To defeat the kingdom of the beast,
Someone the Lord gives victory.
Nations are given onto Him,
As their swords turn into a dust;
Downtrodden and feeling real grim,
As chariots corrode with rust.
He chases them down on the path,
And tramples them under His feet;
They feel the fury of His wrath,
While they acknowledge defeat.
Who would have accomplished this task?
For some it is a mystery;
Is He disguised wearing a mask?
Since the origin of history.
The Lord was first up to the end,
He has been the One and only;
And the strength that we can depend,
Will remain righteous and holy.
He makes the ends of the earth shake,
And cause fire fall from the sky;
Unknown while sleep or awake,
Scientists understand not why.
The people will help their neighbor,
Telling the families, be brave;
Assist helping in their labor,
Through the power that the Lord gave.
So be not afraid God is with you,
Not to be intimidated;
For He will be faithful and true,
Strength that is elucidated.
