Song Lyrics

"The Just Shall Live"

by Rich Mullins
Album: World As Best As I Remember It Vol. 2

And I know the just shall live...
I know the just shall live...
I know the just shall live by faith.

'Cause you won't let your holy one...
No, you won't let your holy one...
You won't let your holy one see corruption in the grave.

Because he put his trust in you...
Because he put his trust in you...
'Cause he put his trust in you, many shall be saved.

And I know that you will raise them up...
I know that you will raise them up...
Know that you will raise them up on the last day.

For the Lord looks down on the sons of men to hear the cries of the innocent, and the guilty will not stand,
And the day of reckoning soon will come, and the whole world will see justice done by the Lord's almighty hand

So I'm telling you the just shall live...
I know the just shall live...
I know the just shall live by faith.

And you will raise them up...
I know that you will raise them up...
That you will raise them up on the last day.

And the prayers stand where the fighters fell,
And time testifies with the tale that it tells: that the meek shall inherit the Earth,
And the church advances on the gates of Hell,
She clings to the light that will not be quelled by the kingdoms of this world.

I'm telling you the just shall live...
I know the just shall live...
I know the just shall live by faith.

And you will raise them up...
I know that you will raise them up...
That you will raise them up on the last day.
