We were not called to comfort, Or to hide behind these walls— The world is dying, darkness falls. We hold the cure, the living flame, But timid hearts have dulled His name. Rise up, O soul, shake off the dust, The Gospel’s power is ours to trust.
No more “wretched man” religion, No more lowering the bar— We are called to holy warfare, To shine like blazing stars.
Aggressive—love that breaks the night, Aggressive—truth that stands and fights. We will not rest, we will not run, Till every soul is won. Aggressive—Spirit, fill us now, Aggressive—knees before You bow. We’ll go where darkness reigns, And bring the lost to life again.
Go out to every creature, Don’t wait for them to come— Compel them to the table, Let mercy make them run. Tear off the bandages of sin, Wake sleepers from their graves— The dignity of love is found In every soul Christ saves.
It’s not by might, it’s not by power, But by Your Spirit, hour by hour. Let us be witnesses who know, Who speak the truth and let it show. No form, no empty ceremony— Just hearts ablaze with holy testimony.
We are responsible for every soul we could have reached, For every light we could have sparked, For every truth we could have preached. Let the zeal of Your house consume us, Let the urgency of love move us.
Aggressive—love that breaks the night, Aggressive—truth that stands and fights. We will not rest, we will not run, Till every soul is won. Aggressive—Spirit, fill us now, Aggressive—knees before You bow. We’ll go where darkness reigns, And bring the lost to life again.
Let the world be shaken, Let the church awake— Aggressive Christianity, For Jesus’ sake.
Aggressive—love that breaks the night, Aggressive—truth that stands and fights. We will not rest, we will not run, Till every soul is won. Aggressive—Spirit, fill us now, Aggressive—knees before You bow. We’ll go where darkness reigns, And bring the lost to life again.
