Rise
Testing winds blow
And shake lose the waste
And hindering forces
Compelling us to let go
That we may…
…Rise
When we feel life’s hurricanes
And take refuge
In the shadow of the Almighty
We shall…
…Rise.
When the storms rage with
Lighting flashes and the thunder rumbles
Fear not the roaring of a defeated foe
A newness of life is birthing
And shall come forth
And when we endure
We…
…Rise.
Though the storm covers
The skies
And floods the land in which we stand
Left with nothing from the work of our hands
We mount up to like eagles above the circumstances
Through life's storms
…we
…Rise.
