(Verse 1)
Slept past the warning light
Another hour lost to the night
Got a debt I gotta pay in the light of day
Less time to sleep, more time to pray
But there’s a hunger in my soul, a fire in the head
To move beyond the silence of what I’ve been fed
(Chorus)
I’m calling out to the Judge, I’m ready for the Court
I'm throwing down the gauntlet, I'm making my report
I see the barriers rising, but they're built on a lie
I’m picking up the cross, watch me fly
Gimme the vision, gimme the fire, gimme the stone
I know there is more, and I won't walk alone.
(Verse 2)
Now the battle calls again, the charges start to ring
For family, for the culture, a change I have to bring
If the ancients saw the glory, then why not I?
I'm ready for the wonder, beneath this burning sky.
(Chorus)
I’m calling out to the Judge, I’m ready for the Court
I'm throwing down the gauntlet, I'm making my report
I see the barriers rising, but they're built on a lie
I’m picking up the cross, watch me fly
Gimme the vision, gimme the fire, gimme the stone
I know there is more, and I won't walk alone.
(Bridge)
My heart's a restless anchor for the ones I hold so dear
To break the chains of shadow, to conquer all the fear
The enemy has his fences, but my desire is sharp and deep
Call them out from the darkness, secrets they hide and keep.
(Guitar Solo - Instrumental build and release)
(Outro)
Rescue them Lord, set their souls on fire
Rescue them Lord, call them up higher
I submit this day to you, yeah
I choose to follow.
