Rise Up Songtext
von Ben Shive

Every stone that makes you stumble
And cuts you when you fall
Every serpent here that strikes your heel
To curse you when you crawl
The King of Love one day will crush them all

And every sad seduction
And every clever lie
Every word that woos and wounds
The pilgrim children of the sky
The King of Love will break them by and by

And you will rise up in the end
You will rise up in the end
I know the night is cruel
But the day is coming soon
And you will rise up in the end


If a thief had come to plunder
When the children were alone
If he ravaged every daughter
And murdered every son
Would not their father see this?
Would not his anger burn?
And would he not repay the tyrant
In the day of his return?

Await, await the day of his return

′Cause he will rise up in the end
He will rise up in the end
I know you need a savior
And he is patient in his anger
But he will rise up in the end

And when the stars come crash into the sea
When the high and mighty fall down on their knees
When you see the sun descending in the sky
The chains of death will fall around your feet

You will rise up in the end
You will rise up in the end
You will rise up in the end
