Stay up on the wall
And don't come down
We got too much work to do
No time to turn around
With a hammer in one hand
And a weapon in the other
Sister and Brother, heed the call
Stay up on the wall.
In the book of Nehemiah
The building had begun
And they worked all day 24/7
Until the work was done
Well I know that they got tired
But they pressed on anyway
And if they could still remind us
I believe we'd hear them say
Stay up on the wall
And don't come down
We got too much work to do
No time to turn around
With a hammer in one hand
And a weapon in the other
Sister and Brother, heed the call
Stay up on the wall.
Now the day is fast approaching
We're living in the time
When you must stand up and be counted
If you're on the Lord's side
Cause He's looking for an army
Of true and faithful ones
To be building up His kingdom
Until His kingdom comes
Stay up on the wall
And don't come down
We got too much work to do
No time to turn around
With a hammer in one hand
And a weapon in the other
Sister and Brother, heed the call
So be bold, be strong
You gotta hold fast, you gotta hold on
Though the enemy desires to conquer and destroy
But greater is He that's in us than he that's in the world
Stay up on the wall
Don't come down
We got too much work to do
No time to turn around
With a hammer in one hand
And a weapon in the other
My sister, my brother, stay up on the wall
Stay up on the wall
We got too much work to do
No time to turn around
With a hammer in one hand
And a weapon in the other
My sister, my brother, stay up on the wall
Stay up on the wall, y'all
You got too much work to do
And you can't come down, knock, knock
24/7
Night and day
Keep on watching
Fight and pray
Heed the word
Sister and brother
Stay up on the wall
