Let Abel Rise

The unlawful burial of righteousness
A man done no wrong to his oppressor
Covered with mud and left to rot
Is this how justice reward obedience
Let Abel live, let Abel rise

How long more shall the wicked reign
How long more shall goodness be suppressed
How long more shall the dogs howl
How long more before light is restored
Let Abel live, let Abel rise

For the wages of sin is death
But the murder of a righteous soul
Will also lead him to Sheol
The cries from the grave since old
This cannot be undone this cannot be told
Let Abel live, let Abel rise

The seed of disobedience is like cancer sprout
To cover the earth to its toes
Hasten the day of trumpets and war
And let the separated souls rise by its call
Let Abel live, let Abel rise

Let harmony rise let peace live
Let righteousness rise let justice live
Let obedience rise let the favorable live
Our Father in heaven, You are the giver of Life
Let Abel live, let Abel rise
