Lyrics:
[Intro]
God's not dead (God's not dead)
God's not dead (God's not dead)
God's not dead (God's not dead), God's not dead

[Verse 1: Michael Tait]
Let love explode and bring the dead to life
A love so bold to see a revolution somehow

[Verse 2: Michael Tait]
Let love explode and bring the dead to life
A love so bold to bring a revolution somehow

[Pre-Chorus: Michael Tait]
Now I'm lost in Your freedom
And this world I'll overcome

[Chorus: Michael Tait, Michael Tait & Kevin Max]
My God's not dead, He's surely alive
He's livin' on the inside, roarin' like a lion
God's not dead, He's surely alive
He's livin' on the inside, roarin' like a lion

[Post-Chorus: Michael Tait]
He's roarin', He's roarin'
He's roarin' like a lion

[Verse 3: Michael Tait]
Let hope arise and make the darkness hide
My faith is dead, I need a resurrection somehow

[Pre-Chorus: Michael Tait]
(Oh) Now I'm lost in Your freedom
(Oh) And this world I'll overcome

[Chorus: Michael Tait & Kevin Max]
My God's not dead, He's surely alive
He's livin' on the inside, roarin' like a lion
God's not dead, He's surely alive
He's livin' on the inside, roarin' like a lion

[Post-Chorus: Michael Tait]
He's roarin', He's roarin'
He's roarin' like a lion
He's roarin', He's roarin'

[Bridge: Michael Tait, Kevin Max, Michael Tait & Kevin Max]
Let Heaven roar and fire fall
Come shake the ground with the sound of revival
Let Heaven roar and fire fall
Come shake the ground with the sound of revival
Let Heaven roar (Let Heaven roar) and fire fall
Come shake the ground with the sound of revival
[Chorus: Michael Tait & Kevin Max]
My God's not dead, He's surely alive
He's livin' on the inside, roarin' like a lion
God's not dead, He's surely alive
He's livin' on the inside, roarin' like a lion
God's not dead, He's surely alive
He's livin' on the inside, roarin' like a lion
God's not dead, He's surely alive
He's livin' on the inside, roarin' like a lion

[Outro: Michael Tait, Kevin Max]
(He's surely alive) He's roarin', He's roarin'
(He's surely alive) He's roarin' like a lion
(He's surely alive) He's roarin', He's roarin'
(He's roarin' like a lion) He's roarin' like a lion, roarin' like a lion
