When we rise

We see a new day

We let God lead the way

God makes our purpose clear

As He removes our fear

We gain strength

As we talk with God at length

We embrace the journey

Meant just for us only

We build new dreams

Until we burst at the seams

We see life lessons learned

All the stripes we’ve earned

We get filled to the core

Before God offers us more

We enjoy moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

We hold each other close

Cause bonding matters most

We learn to stand

As we hold God’s hand

We become one

We see what God has done

And life gets better

As we embrace it to the letter

When we rise

We get stronger

As our journey gets longer

We cherish blessings granted

We water the seeds we planted

We do a victory dance

To celebrate our second chance

We find something pure

God makes us feel secure

We face our naysayers

As we say our prayers

Cause we know who we are

God has healed every scar

We run our race

In a safe and secure place

Faith heals our soul

It makes life whole

We survive every storm

We break every norm

We fill every chapter

With joy and laughter

We open our eyes

To a wonderful surprise

When we rise
