Declare this an emergency
Come on and spread a sense of urgency
And pull us through
And pull us through
And this is the end
This is the end
Of the world
And it's time we saw a miracle
Come on, it's time for something biblical
To pull us through
And pull us through
And this is the end
This is the end
Of the world
Proclaim eternal victory
Come on and change the cause of history
And pull us through
And pull us through
And this is the end
This is the end
Of the world

Bridge (Synth Part)
This Part is a little bit tricky. The first 3 notes of one arpeggio (consisting
of 7 notes) are 3 sixteenth triplets. The next 4 are 4 thirty-second notes.
Just try to keep the first and the last note of an arpeggio in time.
The ","-Signs shall show the sixteenth beats.

Here's a suggestion to play only the chords of the bridge in case the arpeggios are too hard:
(notes in brackets are optional, it's easier to play without them, but sounds better with them)
