lyrics

You don’t want to go out today.
People say there’s a lion in the streets---
big and mean . . .
Another day perhaps, then.
Naw, get on your feet and dance!
Open your eyes. Unfold your hands.
We’re fighting without you.
The rocks and the trees can clap their hands;
God doesn’t need you.
But you’d be a fool to give up the chance
to be of service to---
The God who created the universe
planned your birth
to fulfill every tittle of His plan.
And that’s where you fit in.
So get on your feet and dance!
Open your eyes. Unfold your hands.
We’re fighting without you.
When you’re at His throne,
what will you say
if you’ve spent your life in idle play?
Can you pretend that He’ll be pleased?
Why do you think He’s at all happy now
when He sees what a waste . . . ?
Can you look in His face?
Did He really die
for your slumber and apathy?
Poverty’s coming.
Can you feel your need
rising up like an armed man?
So get on your feet and dance!
Open your eyes. Unfold your hands.
We’re fighting without you.
Hey! We’re dying without you.
