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 
Because 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 
I 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 
For 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 
And she clings to a 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 
You will raise them up 
On the last day
