Let the Church be the Church Let the people rejoice For we've settled the question We've made our choice Let the anthems ring out Songs of victory swell For the church triumphant, is alive and well You know This ship's been through battles before The storms and the tempests and all The rocks on the shore Though the hull may be battered Inside it's safe and dry It's gonna carry it's cargo to The port in the sky God has always had a people Many a foolish conqueror has Made the mistake of thinking That because he had Forced the church of Jesus Christ out of site, he Had stilled it's voice and Snuffed out it's life But God has always had a people the powerful Current of a rushing river is not Diminished because it's forced to Flow underground now The purest water is the stream That burst crystal clear into the sunlight After it has forced it's way Through solid rock there have been who like Simon The Magician sought to barter On the open market that power which Cannot be bought or sold But God has always had a people men who could Not be bought and women who were beyond Purchase god has always had A people there have Been times of affluence and Prosperity when the Church's message has been nearly Deluded into oblivion By those who sought to make it Socially attractive, neatly organized Financially profitable But God has always had a people yes it's been Gold platted Draped in purple and encrusted with Jewels it has been misrepresented, ridiculed Lauded and scorned but God has always had A people and these followers of Jesus Christ have been, according to The whim of the times Elevated sacred leaders and Modern heretics yet through it all Their march is on that powerful army Of the meek god's chosen people Who cannot be bought, blabbered Murdered or stilled On through the ages they march The church! God's church triumphant! Listen child of God, it's Alive discouraged pastor, it's His church and it's still Alive lonely missionary Sow that seed with confidence The church is still alive old saint You're not alone or forgotten the Church is still alive It's alive my broken hearted friend It's still alive busy mothers Just keep trusting in Jesus, the church is alive you're Not alone out there, just keep Looking to Jesus the church is Alive and faithful fathers There's rest in the Lord God's church is still alive so family Of God lift your hands, lift your Hands and praise the Lord the church God's church triumphant is alive It's alive my friends alive and well
