Based on Luke 21:36
Lyrics
Verse 1:The sky is darkening, the storm rolls near,The signs are shouting, but few will hear.Hearts grow heavy, the world deceives,But I will not sleep, I still believe.
Pre-Chorus:I see the warnings in the sky,I lift my voice, I will not hide—
Chorus:I will stay awake, I will watch and pray,Give me strength to stand when the skies give way.Though the earth may shake and the stars fall down,I'll hold my ground on holy ground.Let me escape what must come undone—I want to stand before the Son.
Verse 2:Temptation whispers, fear takes root,But I’m anchored in eternal truth.With eyes wide open, knees bowed low,I'm armored up—I'm battle-known.
Pre-Chorus:The time is short, the hour’s near,I won't be caught in doubt or fear—
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:Trumpets sound, the veil is torn,The King returns, the day is born.And when that fire lights the sky,Let Him find me watching high.
Final Chorus (lifted):I will stay awake, I will watch and pray,You are my strength when the night turns gray.Though the heavens roar and the nations run,I’ll rise to stand before the Son.
Outro:Yes, I will stand… before the Son.
