[Verse 1 | powerful male lead vocal | heavy rhythmic djembe drums | massed men's choir] God arises, His enemies scatter wide Those who hate Him run and hide Like smoke blown away by the desert wind Like wax melted down where the flames begin [Chorus | massive tribal gathering | thunderous taiko drums | booming male chorus in unison] Let God arise, let His foes give way! Let the wicked vanish and fade today! Sing praises to the Rider of the skies Shout His mighty name as the dust-storm flies! [Verse 2 | stamping foot percussion | resonant hand drums | driving folk rhythm] A father to the orphan, a shield for the weak Justice for the humble and all who seek You led Your people across the dry wasteland Rain fell down on the thirsty sand [Chorus | massive tribal gathering | thunderous taiko drums | booming male chorus in unison] Let God arise, let His foes give way! Let the wicked vanish and fade today! Sing praises to the Rider of the skies Shout His mighty name as the dust-storm flies! [Bridge | half-time breakdown | deep pounding floor toms | raw emotional vocals] You ascended on high, leading captives away You carry our burdens, our strength and our stay Blessed be the Lord from day unto day [Final Chorus | full tribal ensemble | earth-shaking percussion | massive unison male vocals] Let God arise, let His foes give way! Let the wicked vanish and fade today! Sing praises to the Rider of the skies Shout His mighty name as the dust-storm flies!
