The crowd surges and thunders
The righteous are howling for blood
My dignity is quartered
Death chokes the breath from our lungs
O God, are Your hands idle
Or worse, do You strengthen our foe?
Why is evil left to prosper
Breaking our backs with its yoke?
O God arise
How long will You be silent?
O God arise
How long will You be silent?
The watching children linger
The innocence stripped from their souls
Forsaking their own brothers
They're ready to cast the first stone
O God arise
How long will You be silent?
O God arise
How long will You be silent?
O God arise
How long will You be silent?
O God arise
How long will You be silent?
How can we plead mercy
And crush our fellow man?
How can we cry freedom
But live like no-one's bound?
How can we preach justice
With these rope-burned hands?
O God arise
How long will You be silent?
O God arise
How long will You be silent?
O God arise
How long will You be silent?
O God arise
How long will You be silent?
How long?
How long?
