My Generation
I see a generation rising up to take their place
With selfless faith, with selfless faith
I see a near revival stirring as we pray and seek
We're on our knees, we're on our knees
When this song first came out in 2007, I was a teenager. I always sang it as a youth, thinking – yes, my generation. This generation of late teens/young 20-somethings.
But as I sang it today, I thought – hey yes, my generation now, as mid/late 20-somethings. My generation – the generation I grew up with, served with... my generation has its own revival to make. I sing it for my generation too.
Sure we talk a lot about youths being the "prime stage" and in many ways that is true, but let us not forget that every generation has its own impact to make, and different impacts at every stage of life.

What is my generation rising up to? What is our place in business, in church, in worship, in community? What revival (change) are we seeing? What brings us to our knees and what will those "knees" bring us?
Hosanna, hosanna
Hosanna in the highest
