Wake up! There are christians being slaughtered in the east!
Women are abused and raped and sold into slavery
They are abducted, tortured and forced to convert to lies
They're stolen from their homes but do we hear their cries?!

Tell me!

Under the scimitar is a heavy price to pay
But the lord paid a steeper cost when he willingly went to the grave
And now I will gladly die so I can boldly say
I will never deny my God through Jesus Christ I am saved!

Under the scimitar
We pray
For deliverance

The egyptian christians being martyred in the east
Their churches are in flames and burned by the enemy
They are abducted, tortured and put to the blade by lies
They're stolen from their homes but do we hear their cries?!

Tell me!

Under the scimitar is a heavy price to pay
But the lord paid a steeper cost when he willingly went to the grave
And now I will gladly die so I can boldly say
I will never deny my God through Jesus Christ I am saved!
