CAN YOU HEAR?



CAN YOU HEAR?

Can you hear the shout from Zion?
Hear the roar of Judah's Lion
The King who you've been defyin'
Bow your head , no more denyin

Do you hear the rattling bones
A music with eerie tones
Don't you feel the earth groans
Kings abandon dissolving thrones

Do you see the signs of the age?
They're jumping from the Bible's page
All around us the demons rage
Michael readys the devil's cage

Can you taste sins bitter curse
 Every day it's getting worse
Seems the only relief is a hearse
Hope collapses and life is terse

Can you Hear the Lion's roar?
It's shaking us all to the core
Poor devil, this ain't a war
You're bound forever more
AMEN
