Among the Dead
Awakening the Dead: Embracing Salvation's Call
Lyrics
Do you see the people, lying in their living graves
People are spiritually dead, unaware of a higher purpose.
Knowing not the Mystery, totally depraved
Humanity is ignorant of the divine mystery and morally corrupt.
The backdrop of the Law, shows man the sinner that he is
The Law reveals human sinfulness, emphasizing Adam's original sin.
Doesn't need to be some heinous crime, point out what Adam did
No need for a severe crime; Adam's actions already expose sin.
THAT is the reason
Stating the purpose or cause.
WHY we are here
Explaining why the speaker and others exist.
TELL 'EM of Salvation
Encouraging the proclamation of salvation.
The WORK of God is dear
Highlighting the value of God's work.
LET the light shine
Advocating for spreading the light to dispel darkness.
OUT and darkness ends
Emphasizing the end of darkness when the light shines.
ADOPTED children
Referring to believers as adopted children of God.
We walk among the dead
Describing believers as living among spiritually dead people.
Awaiting the Hour preparing for war
Anticipating a future conflict and preparing for spiritual battle.
To slay the deniers of Christ
To defeat those who deny Christ.
Until that day, invite them
Inviting non-believers to join in Christ before judgment.
Come and be one with us in Christ
Encouraging unity in Christ before the awaited day.
Time here is so short, as the elders do know
Emphasizing the brevity of life, urging action for Christ.
Listen up ambassadors for Christ
Calling Christians to redeem their time and engage in spiritual warfare.
Redeem the time, I'm calling you
A call to action for believers to fight for their faith.
To get out there and fight
Highlighting the urgency of the spiritual battle.
There's action that's needed, the call, your to heed it
Stressing the importance of taking action in response to God's call.
Eternitys coming, they're entering hell
Warning about the approaching eternity and the fate of unbelievers.
And there blinded by satan, in darkness so great
Describing the spiritual blindness caused by Satan.
That they don't even know what it is that they fall on
Expressing the severity of spiritual darkness.
But you need to understand, just what they believe, so check it out
Encouraging believers to understand the beliefs of non-Christians.
We wait for the King, and till he comes we occupy
Waiting for the return of Christ and actively occupying until then.
Forcefully advancing, no need to wonder why
Advocating for forceful spiritual advancement with a sense of purpose.
