Rising (A Song of Ascent) Songtext
von Charlie Hall

A shout is in our hearts
And laughter fills our mouths
You have been good to us
You are faithful

We planted years of tears
We can′t believe the joy
You have been good to us
You are faithful, whoa

We are rising, in your rising
Singing freedom songs, freedom songs
Throw off your mourning, this is for dancing
Singing freedom songs, freedom songs


Now we are dreaming dreams
Of more than we can see
You have been good to us
You are faithful

Our hearts have been unchained
It's time to celebrate
You have been good to us
You are faithful, whoa

We are rising, in your rising
Singing freedom songs, freedom songs
Throw off your mourning, this is for dancing
Singing freedom songs, freedom songs

Our clinched fists raise and slowly open
To the God that saves and heals the broken
Our clinched fists raise and slowly open
To the God that saves and heals the broken


We are rising, in your rising
Singing freedom songs, freedom songs
Throw off your mourning, this is for dancing
Singing freedom songs, freedom songs
