I Will Rise

My new favorite song by Chris Tomlin is so emotional that
everytime I hear it in the car, I start to cry.(i'm crying as I type this post right now)
The words are SO powerful and represent
the longing I know I have to see my Savior.
This life is filled with sorrow and pain and one day we will be free from that- praise the Lord!
So many families I know are going thru great trials right now and what an encouragement to know that SOON God will call us to HIM where no tears will ever fall and we will worship the ONE who conquered death for us...

There's a peace I've come to know
Though my heart and flesh may fail
There's an anchor for my soul
I can say, It is well

Jesus has overcome
and the grave is overwhelmed
The victory is won
He is risen from the dead

Chorus:
And I will rise
When He calls my name
No more sorrow, no more pain
I will rise, on eagle's wings
Before my God
fall on my knees,
and rise...
I will rise


There's a day that's drawing near
when this darkness breaks to light
and the shadows disappear
and my faith shall be my eyes

Jesus has overcome
and the grave is overwhelmed
The victory is won
He is risen from the dead

And I hear the voice of many angels sing
Worthy is the Lamb!
And I hear the cry of every longing heart
Worthy is the Lamb!

And I hear the voice of many angels sing
Worthy is the Lamb!
And I hear the cry of every longing heart
You are worthy! You are worthy!
Worthy is the Lamb!

I will rise
when He calls my name
No more sorrow, no more pain
I will rise, on eagle's wings
Before my God
fall on my knees,
and rise...
I will rise....
I will rise....
