Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
As I watch the world being held captive by dreams
That will never be fulfilled in this life,
Chasing the darkness and everything that surrounds
All the emptiness buried inside,
Well I won't stop showing this hope that is holding
The passion so deep in my heart,
To tell all the world of Your love and affection
And the plan that You've had from the start,
So I will continue to fight
'Til the world comes alive
'Til the world comes alive
Cause You have restored us
And You have redeemed us
And we have been given new life
Cause You are alive
There is a freedom that begins by receiving
The forgiveness that cleanses us all
All the broken and bleeding just start by believing
His love has conquered death's call.
So I will continue to fight
'Til the world comes alive
'Til the world comes alive
Cause You have restored us
And You have redeemed us
And we have been given new life
Cause You are alive
I walk out on the battlefield
See that all the pain is real
Be the hands that stop the bleeding
Seeing all these wounded souls
All they really need is hope
I'll show Your great love is healing
'Til the world comes alive
'Til the world comes alive
'Til the world comes alive
Cause You have restored us
And You have redeemed us
And we have been given new life
Cause You are alive
And You are alive
You are alive
You are alive
As I watch the world being held captive by dreams
That will never be fulfilled in this life
