When passion takes on a purpose
And searching ones embrace the light
When skeptics find themselves down on their knees
You'll know it's here
When you hear a sound as loud as thunder
And you hear a cry that shakes the ground beneath you
When you hear a shout that shatters the darkness
You'll know it's here
When the lost find a name we're believing in
And the fallen get back onto their feet
And the broken start to dream again
And the sound of hope fills these streets
You'll know it's here
Revolution
Can you feel it
Revolution cry
Revolution
Can you hear it
Revolution cry
And I believe it
And I believe it
How long do we have to wait
And how long will we stay silent
When will this weeping generation dance again
Oh God when will
The truth be restored
When the lost find a name we're believing in
And the fallen get back onto their feet
And the broken start to dream again
And the sound of hope fills these streets
You'll know it's here

The song continues with a powerful imagery of a cry that shakes the ground and a shout that shatters the darkness. This speaks to the power of our voices, united in worship and proclamation, to bring about change. It reminds me of the verse in Isaiah 55:12, which says, "You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands." Our worship and declaration of God's goodness and power have the ability to shake the foundations and bring light into darkness.

This unity and agreement in prayer and purpose are essential for the revolution to take place.
The bridge of the song speaks to the hope and restoration that come with this revolution. It talks about the lost finding a name to believe in, the fallen getting back on their feet, and the broken starting to dream again.
