This is for my sisters that find yourselves confused
From the magazines and movie screens telling you how to be you
Oh, don't you think it's time to just be free?

Yeah, and this is for my brothers trying hard to be a man
But that past you can't forget sure makes it hard for you to stand
Oh, don't you think it's time to just be free?

Ah, we're free to just believe god's grace will always be enough
Free to just be children, wrapped up in his great love

When the sons and daughters start singing this song
Then everybody all around 'em will be singing along
It's gonna shake the world
It's gonna shake the world
When we all start marching to the beat of the drum
Moving to the rhythm of the kingdom to come
It's gonna shake the world
It's gonna shake, shake, shake the world

Yeah with mercy as our melody and justice as our guide
We're gonna sing to all the broken that the world has cast aside
Singing don't you think it's time to just be free

Our god's the only god bringing hope to all the lost
There's healing and forgiveness in the anthem of the cross

When the sons and daughters start singing this song
Then everybody all around 'em will be singing along
It's gonna shake the world
It's gonna shake the world
When we all start marching to the beat of the drum
Moving to the rhythm of the kingdom to come
It's gonna shake the world
It's gonna shake, shake, shake

Darkness has to tremble at the sound of his great name
Every king, every ruler, bows down at his great fame
There's nothing that can silence the song of the redeemed, oh

When the sons and daughters start singing this song
Then everybody all around 'em will be singing along
It's gonna shake the world
Yeah, when we all start marching to the beat of the drum
Moving to the rhythm of the kingdom to come
It's gonna shake the world
It's gonna shake, shake, shake the world
Shake the world
Shake the world
Shake the world
