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
Oh, Oh

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
Oh, Oh

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