When The Foundations Fall

[Verse 1]
Children lost in classrooms, saints cut down in prayer,
Voices silenced by the darkness, O Lord, are You there?

[Chorus]
When the arrows fly by night and the shadows steal the day,
When the wicked seem to prosper and the truth is swept away,
We will lift our eyes to Jesus, He is Lord above it all,
For our home is built in heaven when the foundations fall.

[Verse 2]
The earth shakes with sorrow, justice feels so small,
But the Lord is still in heaven, He reigns above it all.

[Chorus]
When the arrows fly by night and the shadows steal the day,
When the wicked seem to prosper and the truth is swept away,
We will lift our eyes to Jesus, He is Lord above it all,
For our home is built in heaven when the foundations fall.

[Bridge]
No more tears, no more sorrow, no more pain to bear,
Every wound will be mended when we see Him there.

[Final Chorus]
When the arrows fly by night and the shadows steal the day,
Still the righteous stand in hope for the stone is rolled away.
We will see His face in glory, the King who conquered all,
Our forever rest is heaven when the foundations fall.

[Bridge]
No more tears, no more sorrow, no more pain to bear,
Every wound will be mended when we see Him there.

[Outro (soft, fading)]
For the righteous, the Lord loves justice,
The virtuous will see His face.
