Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
We live a life
Day by day
A walk of faith
Not by sight
We generate, permeate
Close the gate
On the dirty devil
The day will come
When we are told
If we are righteous
By the Lord of old
A sacrifice complete in Him
We're here today
But we're gone tomorrow
[Chorus]
We will not be silent
We will not stand alone
We will not be silent
We will not stand alone
All God's people
Hand in hand
Divided we fall
United we stand
Your Kingdom come
Thy will be done
Here on earth
Like it is in heaven
Heaven and earth will pass away
But Your Word
Will stand forever
Eternal life is in our reach
Eternal hell is not that funny
[Chorus]
