Call to the Seven Churches

[Call to the Seven Churches]

[Verse 1]
Heaven's voice resounds, seven stars in grasp so tight
Amidst golden lamps, surveying churches in His sight
Record what shall come, heed the Lord's commanding call
Stand before judgment's throne, walk truth's path through all

[Chorus]
Oh, Ephesus awaken, rise in fervent plea
Labors and endurance, praised eternally
Tolerate no evil, cloak in holiness divine
Holy Spirit's blaze ignites, glory ever shine

[Verse 2]
He knows your deeds profound, battles fought with blood and tear
Against sin's fierce assault, faithful unto death appear
Build the church on rock, lead souls to salvation's shore
Ark of grace eternal, guide forevermore

[Chorus]
Oh, Ephesus awaken, rise in fervent plea
Labors and endurance, praised eternally
Tolerate no evil, cloak in holiness divine
Holy Spirit's blaze ignites, glory ever shine

[Verse 3]
False apostles unmasked, sword of truth pierces deep
Forgive with mercy's grace, yet evil's hold release
Banish darkness from the fold, live in radiant light
Children of the Lord arise, race to heaven's height

[Chorus]
Oh, Ephesus awaken, rise in fervent plea
Labors and endurance, praised eternally
Tolerate no evil, cloak in holiness divine
Holy Spirit's blaze ignites, glory ever shine

[Verse 4]
On that final day of reckoning, shepherds stand revealed
Lead flocks to verdant pastures, waters calm and healed
With servant's humble heart, seek the Master's praise alone
Crowns of glory await, in eternal throne

[Chorus]
Oh, Ephesus awaken, rise in fervent plea
Labors and endurance, praised eternally
Tolerate no evil, cloak in holiness divine
Holy Spirit's blaze ignites, glory ever shine

[Verse 5]
Knowing God's boundless love, flee shadows of the night
Only Son's cross-borne blood, reconciliation's light
Spirit's sighs intercede, guide to truth's sacred way
Holy church emerge renewed, embrace endless day

[Chorus]
Oh, Ephesus awaken, rise in fervent plea
Labors and endurance, praised eternally
Tolerate no evil, cloak in holiness divine
Holy Spirit's blaze ignites, glory ever shine

[Verse 6]
Heed the words to seven, compass for faith's true course
Turn from rebukes with haste, emerge in praise's source
Held in Lord's right hand, measure of justice pure
Heaven's splendor beckons, press on, hearts secure

[Chorus]
Oh, Ephesus awaken, rise in fervent plea
Labors and endurance, praised eternally
Tolerate no evil, cloak in holiness divine
Holy Spirit's blaze ignites, glory ever shine
