Sleepy little world on the edge of dawn
It's time to get your game face on
Get off your devices and shake your vices
'Cause now you know it won't be long
The second coming is a' comin' on strong
When the Author takes the stage the play is over
There will be no hiding from the light
When the Lion walks these fields the flowers open
Brand new life will rise from winter's night
A long winter's night
Long winter's night
Long winter's night
"A servant is not greater than his Master. If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you"
When the cat's away the mice will play
And that's what we've got today
I've seen my brothers and sisters gettin' slaughtered by Hitlers
And now the news got nothin' to say
But can't you feel the breaking of the day?
When the Author takes the stage the play is over
There will be no hiding from the light
When the Lion walks these fields the flowers open
Brand new life will rise from winter's night
Winter's night
A dreadful winter's night
"In the world you will have tribulation, but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."
And so we lift our eyes to them blood red skies
As the end draws nigh
The Son Of Man descends and the old ways end
Yeah He's gonna set things right
Don't you know He's gonna set things right?
When the Author takes the stage the play is over
There will be no hiding from the light
When the Lion walks these fields the flowers open
Brand new life will rise from winter's night
You know it's winter's night
Come on winter's night!
Invasion of this world you know it's drawing closer
Like a melting dream before our eyes
The ending of this age, we've got this blessed hope yeah
Can't you feel your heart cry out for Christ?
