MATT REDMAN lyrics : "Twenty Seven Million"

See what the world's done? Came to London
She's a nothing a no one she's undone
Broken dreams stolen freedom

Trapped in the night trafficked and beaten
All a part of an evil economy
Nothing more than someone's commodity

A precious being like you and me
A daughter a sister a somebody!
She was drawn by the bright lights

She was tied up in their lights
She worked right through the daylight
No voice she's a slave to the night


27 million like me
(That's 27 million on this cruel journey)


We've got to rise up open our eyes up
Be her voice be her freedom come on stand up!

We've got to rise up open our eyes up
Be her voice be her freedom come on stand up!
We've got to rise up open our eyes up

Be her voice be her freedom come on stand up!
We've got to rise up open our eyes up
Be her voice be her freedom come on stand up!


After the man left she's nothing left
No one no love no one to call her friend

She's stuck in the pit of hell
She's almost sick from the smell
She's numb she's dead from the inside out

Her heart is screaming but you don't hear the shout
Who's the voice? Who's gonna break the door down?
Who wakes her up from the nightmare now?


She was drawn by the bright lights
She was tied up in their lights

She worked right through the daylight
No voice she's a slave to the night


27 million like me
(27 million need Heavens mercy!)


We've got to rise up open our eyes up
Be her voice be her freedom come on stand up!
We've got to rise up open our eyes up

Be her voice be her freedom come on stand up!
We've got to rise up open our eyes up
Be her voice be her freedom come on stand up!

We've got to rise up open our eyes up
Be her voice be her freedom come on stand up!


27 Million are you joking?
How do we let evil get so tight a grip
Watching as the world falls apart?

How do we let this stuff begin?
We're not bothered if this offends
Because you got people that can depend

But they ain't got that they ain't got nothing Sometimes you gotta stand for something
Let this be the stand against your blood running


Little girl don't cry
Let me dry your eyes in the darkest night
Hold on through the storm

You're not on your own
Hold on love will come


Repeat Until End
We've got to rise up open our eyes up
Be her voice be her freedom come on stand up!
