Lyrics
Verse (Repeat x4)
From the ends of the Earth we hear this song
Glory to the Righteous One
Chorus (Repeat x2)
We will sing the song that awakens the dawn
And we will usher in your appearing
It's your face that we crave
It's your presence that we long for
Your Kingdom come
Bridge
And with your seal upon my heart
It's stronger than the grave
Jealous, ablaze

Meaning & Inspiration
"We Will Sing" opens by describing a song heard from the ends of the earth, giving glory to the Righteous One, framing worship as something already spreading globally rather than confined to one gathering. That wide geographic scope grounds the song's praise in shared, worldwide declaration from its very first line.
Its chorus names a specific purpose for that singing, awakening the dawn and ushering in God's appearing, treating worship as active participation in bringing about longed-for arrival rather than passive waiting. Naming both face and presence as things craved and longed for gives that anticipation an intimate, personal edge alongside its cosmic scale.
Rooted in contemporary worship's anthem tradition, the song functions as a declaration of global longing for God's kingdom and presence, its closing bridge borrowing marital covenant imagery, a seal upon the heart stronger than the grave, to describe a devotion jealous and ablaze rather than passive.
