Death Knell

I know you can hear it
The sound of church bells ringing
To signal the new day's dawning
The Kingdom of Heaven is singing out

Wild Pentecostyle!
Wild Pentecostyle!

Summoning to nations
Come and see where we stay
A summons to the lost and abandoned
In the midst of decay

Take hope
The fire is burning
Come warm yourselves on the flames
I know your destiny, children of God
My Father knows all your names
Death Knell

I know you can hear it
The sound of church bells ringing
To signal the new day's dawning
The Kingdom of Heaven is singing out

Wild Pentecostyle!
Wild Pentecostyle!
Wild Pentecostyle!

Summoning to nations
Come and see where we stay
A summons to the lost and abandoned
In the midst of decay

Take hope
The fire is burning
Come warm yourselves on the flames
I know your destiny, children of God
My Father knows all your names
Death Knell

Sound and song have always played an important role in the days of battle
In the days of David, for example
When enemies came against God's people
David would give the command
And they would raise up a sound called, "Death Knell Selah"
That was the sound of the shofars and reed pipes
Declaring victory over the enemies even before the battle

I summon the nations of the world!
I summon the nations of the world! (Let's go)

And be reminded that He's still with the people of God in days of battle
