Arise

Arise alive to the call from the Lofty One
the majestic Prince of Peace alights His horse
In splendor He motions towards the place built for His renown
When He walks into the room everything changes 
Darkness flees and lights appears
He waits patiently for the one He has called to Himself
To know Him and be like Him
His smile lightens the universe each time one out of His kraal enters in
And still He calls,  and  calls,  and waits on  us to  come
Cause He knows this is a personal choice for us to make
A life in Him or in the other
One who crouches like a tiger but aint one
He roars like a  lion but he aint one either
he is but a lousy thief  who awaits his time to pay  for his sins
A day where there will be weeping and gnashing  of teeth
Arise, and answer to the call to life
Everflowing into endless seasons  and times
Would you come in and partake of  this amazing grace
The banquet is already prepared all you need to do is come and dine
Cause the price has already been paid and all your dues are done
