If we’re gonna rise, we’ve got to rise as one
Side by side, we’ve got to rise as one
What if the world started seeing who we really are
That the one we believe in is hope for the heart

It’s time to rise up
Time to stand strong
Time for our lives
To point to Jesus

We can be hope
We can live love
This is our moment
It’s time to rise up

If we’re gonna rise, we’ve got to rise as one
Undivided, we’ve got to rise as one

What if we all came together, together to sing
We could change this forever, change everything

It’s time to rise (x4)

Behind the Song:
“That they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.” - John 17:23 There is power being unified in Christ and there is weakness in a divided church. Too often we define ourselves by what we are not rather than what we are. There will always be disagreements on doctrine, interpretations of scripture and liturgy, but the only thing that matters is that we stand united on the person, works and call of Jesus Christ. If we do, then nothing can stop us.
