Lift up your Heads
Lift up your heads for your liberation is near at hand
It is not against human enemies that we have to struggle, but against the principalities And the ruling forces
Who are masters of the darkness in the world, the spirits of evil in the heavens
So, put on the amour of God for spiritual battle. Open wide the gates for the great king The mighty one in battle
To come in. Then, lift up your heads, for your liberation is at hand
God hears your cries; God sees your tears
He listens to your pleas and he will act mightily. (Mightily)
God is able; God is faithful
He gave you His word and he will do what He says (What he says)
So, fling wide the gates
Open the ancient doors
And the great king will come in
Who is this king
He is the Lord, strong and mighty
The Lord, victorious in battle
Lift up your heads for your liberation is near at hand
Lift up your heads for your liberation is near at hand
Ve'n lee'y a dzə' fo mbi'y, a kii'y ji si gha'n se Nyu'y si' wi'y lu'ŋe'r ven oo
He will not judge by appearances
He will not judge by hearsay
He will judge the poor fairly
He will defend the rights of the helpless
He will rule his people with justice
He will rule his people with integrity
Open wide the gates, and let God in
Lift up your heads for your liberation is near at hand
Lift up your heads for your liberation is near at hand
Ve'n lee'y a dzə' fo mbi'y, a kii'y ji si gha'n se Nyu'y si' wi'y lu'ŋe'r ven oo
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood
It is against the wicked spiritual forces in the heavenly world;
It is against the rulers and powers of the dark world
So, put on the armour of God now
That you may stand these evil days
Put truth as a belt round your waist
And uprightness as a breastplate
For your shoes: the eagerness to spread the gospel of peace
Always carry the shield, the shield of faith
You must take salvation as your helmet eh!
With the word of God as the sword of the Spirit
And see, your God will save you
Lift up your heads for your liberation is near at hand
Lift up your heads for your liberation is near at hand
Ve'n lee'y a dzə' fo mbi'y, a kii'y ji si gha'n se Nyu'y si' wi'y lu'ŋe'r ven oo
