Wake The Dead

Wake The Dead (20 Year Anniversary Version)

Look at what you’ve done
You’ve taken away the light
Denied the rapture
How can’t you see that I did this all for you?

40 counts of sin
This trial begins
You think you can judge me?
I am the way
I am the fire
I am the light
Did this all for you
Did this all for you

For all mankind
For all mankind
For all mankind 
For all mankind

I stand accused, disapproved
Your hollow horror
I came in from the desert with the glory of the sun
Shackled to this chair
A witness to the coming darkness
Sanctimonious sentences, the circle now divides
Life, death
The dawning of the final verdict
Waiting for the moment for the 13 to decide
13 now decide
For all mankind

For all mankind
For all mankind
For all mankind
For all mankind

For all mankind
For all mankind
For all mankind
For all mankind

For all mankind
For all mankind
For all mankind
For all mankind


This travesty, this puppet show
The will is strong, the trumpet blows
Soon the cup will overflow
Only then will all men know
The seventh circle now divides
He demanded sacrifice
Once again, the dead will rise
For all mankind

For All Mankind

Let the Current Choose (Metal Mix)

Nehemiah 4:17–20, Ezekiel 33:7

Here the focus turns outward again — the community of faith standing together like Nehemiah’s builders: one hand on the trowel, one on the sword. This track has a hammer-and-anvil rhythm, reminding us that vigilance and unity guard what God is building.

LYRICS

Intro

Hammers strike in the midnight air,
Stone by stone, the walls repair.
Trumpets waiting, swords in hand,
A holy city, a watchman’s stand.

Verse

Builders labor, burdened still,
Chisel and blade, a steadfast will.
Eyes on the night, hands to the task,
Guarding the breach, the shadows mass.

Pre-Chorus

Lift up your voice, sound the alarm,
The Lord will fight with His mighty arm.

Chorus

Watchmen on the walls arise,
Standing guard with burning eyes.
Sword and stone, we will not fall,
The Lord is with us — above it all.

Verse

Trumpets cry when the night draws near,
Every brother and sister hear.
From the breach to the furthest gate,
We fight as one, our God is great.

Pre-Chorus

Stand in the gap, call through the flame,
The wall is sealed in His holy name.

Chorus

Watchmen on the walls arise,
Standing guard with burning eyes.
Sword and stone, we will not fall,
The Lord is with us — above it all.

Bridge

“I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel,
So hear the word and give them warning for Me.”

Build the wall! Guard the gate!
Stand your ground — the Lord is great!

Chorus

Watchmen on the walls arise,
Voices lifted to the skies.
Sword and stone, we will not fall,
The Lord is with us — above it all.

Outro

Stone by stone the city stands,
Sealed and guarded by holy hands.
Watchmen keep their endless call,
Till the day no night will fall.
