|
I used to live my life for me |
|
I was never down on my knees |
|
I went to church just to sit in the seats |
|
I used to love to do nothing |
|
Salvation got a hold of me |
|
I was broken down and hurting |
|
Redemption came as a wave of relief |
|
But then it followed with a burden |
|
Thought that I would be living easy |
|
'Til I finally heard the words You were speaking |
|
"If you're Mine you will shine!" |
|
(Chorus) |
|
So it's time to get up |
|
I'm sick of just sittin' around, yeah |
|
It's time to get up |
|
I'm listening to the sound, yeah |
|
It's time to get up |
|
'Cause all the people on the mezzanine floor |
|
We can't forget what we were made for |
|
It's time to get up |
|
Because our hands were made for reaching out, yeah |
|
So it's time to get up |
|
Maybe you've been just like me |
|
Naked, blind, unaware, unseen |
|
Maybe you've been living for peace |
|
For no one but yourself |
|
A lot to do and the workers are few |
|
He's speaking to me and He's speaking to you |
|
He sayin' "If you're Mine you will shine!" |
|
(Chorus) |
|
Hey, hey, you need to know that |
|
We're not afraid to show them |
|
The Good News so the world will, no doubt |
|
Shout with the prodigal son! |
|
Hey, hey, you need to know that |
|
We're not afraid to show them |
|
The Good News so the world will, no doubt |
|
Shout with the prodigal son! |
|
(Chorus) |
|
So it's time to get up! |
