John Mark Mcmillan Reckoning Day Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The lions in the street bend their heads for the reckoning day
'Cause the interstate's giving up her dead for the reckoning day
Would you come alive everybody?
Would you come alive everyone?
Get up out of bed for the sound of the song unsung

[Verse 2]
Bury all your guns in the sand 'cause the temperature's changed
And the blood-shot eye of the sun stains the bones of the slain
Would you come alive everybody?
Would you come alive everyone?
Get up out of bed for the sound of the song unsung

[Verse 3]
The hour's gonna take you apart on the reckoning day
If the property lines of your heart are drawn on the clay
Would you come alive everybody?
Would you come alive everyone?
Get up out of bed for the sound of the song unsung

[Verse 4]
The tidewater's taxing the shores of the washing away
The flood stands high at the doors of the houses you've made
Would you come alive everybody?
Would you come alive everyone?
Get up out of bed for the sound of the song unsung

[Chorus]
Lift up your head, oh you gate
Lift up your eyes all you who wait
Daughter and son, ashes and dust
Come untied from the weight of the age

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Lift up your head, oh you gate
Lift up your eyes all you who wait
Daughter and son, ashes and dust
Come untied from the weight of the age

Lift up your head, oh you gate
Lift up your eyes all you who wait
Daughter and son, ashes and dust
Come untied from the weight of the age

Lift up your head, oh you gate
Lift up your eyes all you who wait
Daughter and son, ashes and dust
Come untied from the weight of the age
