Rise from your slumber
Days without number
Wait for you
Shake off your losses
So many causes
to put your shoulder to
It’s time to mend
Time to turn the next bend
We depend on you to harmonize
so Rise
Rise

Daughter of Zion, awake from thy sadness
Awake, for thy foe shall oppress thee no more
For bright o’er the hill dawns the day-star of gladness
Arise for the night of thy sorrow is over
Arise for the night of thy sorrow is over
Arise

Though many thy foes, but the arm that subdued them
and scattered their legions is mightier far
They fled from the wrath
of the scourge that pursued them
for vain were their steeds and their chariots of war
Vain were their steeds and their chariots of war
Arise

Daughter of Zion, the power that saved thee
Extolled with the harp and the timbrel should be
Rejoice for the foe is destroyed that enslaved thee
The oppressor is vanquished
and Zion is free
The oppressor is vanquished
and Zion is free
Arise!
