Rise Up

Rise Up

I saw a licence plate today.

It said, “Rise Up”.

And deep within my heart I knew

They were words sung to Your tune

Rise up, you say

I wonder what you mean

Is it to speak in front of others

And make our journey plain?

What is it You would say

Oh Lord of God above?

What is in your heart for me

A child that you love?

My plans towards you are good

Daughter, you say

Have no fear and follow Me

I’ll show you the way

Times are tough and times are hard

There are many who feel scarred

You have walked a journey too

And you have hope to offer through

Lift up your gaze and lift up your eyes

Look up for a new sunrise

What I do for you

I will do for others

Lift your gazes to Me

And let me shine through in you

And show the plans I have in store

For more than just you
