Rise (The Crucified Album Version)

When my life was ending
When my life was dead
The pain was taking over
And I wanted life to end
It was time to say
Goodbye for good
But then one day God showed me
Gave me a reason to live
Showed me there was hope
In the love He gives
Rise
Rise and hold your head up high
Stand
Stand you are His child
We've been in bondage for too long
It's time to rise up in Him be strong
We'll leave the past behind
And in Him move on
Rise
My God is a shield about me
And He is a lifter of my head
Satan tries to cut me down
But my God protects
In my God no wickedness is found
And so
Satan and his angels are starving
Seeking out to destroy
But my God puts the snare upon himself
Rendered null and void
Rise
Rise and hold your head up high
Stand
Stand you are His child
We've been in bondage for too long
It's time to rise up in Him be strong
We'll leave the past behind
And in Him move on
Rise
From despair and defeat
There's faith defined
In His word
Make our innocence strong
We shall have victory
As it is written
We are the children of God
And the gates of hell shall not prevail
We're the light at the end of the tunnel
A beacon to all who seek
We shall have victory so soon
Take victory
Rise
Rise and hold your head up high
Stand
Stand you are His child
We've been in bondage for too long
It's time to rise up in Him be strong
We'll leave the past behind
And in Him move on
Rise
In Jesus Christ
