Don't close your eyes because the night is dark
Don't fear the future should it black the sun
There's a hope burning brighter in a fearless love
There's a brighter day
There's a higher name
Don't hide in silence while the truth screams out
Don't fear the future shaking up this ground
There's a freedom that marches in a different sound
So if you have the choice
If you have the voice
Then lift your voice and sing
If you have the breath, lift up your voice and sing
If you have the heart, lift up your voice and sing
If you have the faith, lift up your voice and sing
If you have the love, now's the time to use it
Look back no further than the Saviour's cross
Look to the future like the grave is lost
There's a promise returning all the stolen years
There's nothing left to fear
Now the King is here
So lift your voice and sing
If you have the breath, lift up your voice and sing
If you have the heart, lift up your voice and sing
If you have the faith, lift up your voice and sing
If you have the love, now's the time to use it
Salvation runs for everyone
So open up the doors and let us sing
I hear the sound march in like thunder
I see the Spirit bursting out in a mighty flood
Over everyone
I hear the sound of sons and daughters
I see the old dream wild in young imagining
Young and old will dream
I hear the sound of earth's surrender
Wonders above and signs below for all to see
We have been set free so open up the doors and sing
If you've been set free, lift your voice and sing
If you have the love, now's the time to use it
Salvation runs for everyone
So open up the doors and let us sing
Open up the doors and let us sing
We've been redeemed, we've been set free
The time has come, the fight is won
The future marches in and calls us free
Open up the doors and let us sing
We've been redeemed, we've been set free
The time has come, the fight is won
The future marches in and calls us free
Lift up your voice and sing
Salvation runs for everyone
So open up the doors and let us sing
The time has come, the fight is won
The future marches in and calls us free
