Verse 1
The strong ones crush the weak and claim the prize
Where are you Lord?
There is no fear of judgement in their eyes.
They claim there is no God to see their plan
Where are you Lord?
They say “Who then will stop me? No-one can”.
Verse 2
Deceitful words lie hid beneath their tongue
Where are you Lord?
They tear apart the poor, the weak, the young.
They claim that God forgets of does not see
Where are you Lord?
They say “God hides his face, and we are free”.
Verse 3
But there is nothing hidden from your sight
Arise, O Lord
For Lord, you reign supreme in power and might.
You’ll call them to account for every deed
Arise, O Lord
The helpless turn to you in all their need.
Verse 4
A refuge where the needy ones can run,
Arise O Lord!
The nail marked hands of Christ, your only Son
He bore injustice hanging on the tree,
Arise O Lord!
The guiltless one who sets the captives free
Verse 5
And Lord, you hear the cries of those oppressed
Arise, O Lord.
You are the helper of the fatherless.
And on your great and final judgement day,
Arise, O Lord
The strong ones of the earth will melt away

Indelible Grace does hymn revival so well I'm almost annoyed I don't see the trend making its way to Australia yet. This record keeps me hoping. Gino Rodrigo
