The Cry

Oh hear the watchmen cry
The bridgeroom is coming
Oh hear the watchmen cry
From the midnight's lonely tower
Listen the watchmen cries
The wedding feast is dawning
Keep watching the eastern sky
For the chosen day and hour

Cry out that the time is near
When in clouds of glory He'll appear
Sing for the end of fear
From the midnight's lonely tower

Oh hear the watchmen cry
Oh hear the watchmen cry
Oh hear the watchmen cry
Oh hear the watchmen cry

God is raising up a people
Clothed in light
Holy people to stand through the watch of the night

And the cry goes out
And the cry goes on and on and on
Searching out the skies
with expectant eyes
Listen for the cry

God is raising up a people
Robed in truth
And they know what the Father has told them to do

And the cry goes out
And the cry goes on and on and on
All across the land
The time is at hand
So listen for the cry

Don't be left with a lonely heart
Don't be left in a world of doubt

When you can live in the Fatherland
Love too deep to comprehend
Do you understand the cry goes out for you?

Will you come and join the people
Standing on the heights
Holy people brave enough to carry rhe fight

And the cry goes out
And the cry goes on and on and on
Crying out from the east
Shouting out from the west
Listen for the cry

Don't be left with a lonely heart
Don't be left in a world of doubt

One day there'll be an angel cry
It's gonna shake the earth and sky
At last the world will know the reason for the cry
