Charlie Hall - Rising (A Song of Ascent) Lyrics

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
