Can’t Be Silent

A sound went out
Over all the earth
A joyful noise
About the new birth

Some people listened
And others did not
But for those who believed
Salvation was wrought

Lives became saved
From the wrath to come
Freedom was realized
Fears overcome

Bodies restored
And minds were made whole
The answers received
Enlightened the soul

A new beginning
A brand-new life
With God as their Father
The end of all strife

Those who were dead
Are now made alive
And in God’s presence
They’ll ever abide

They were without hope
But now heaven-bound
With life eternal
Because of that sound

This joyful noise
Begins with ONE voice
Let that ONE be yours
And you’ll forever rejoice
