Getting Arise Out of You
Rise up.
Keep your eyes up.
Though you weep,
dry your cries up.
Keep your prized tied up
With a ribbon in the sky touched….
KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PRIZE –
RISE UP!
Don’t get riled up
By vile stuff.
Keep your pride trumped.
Be meek – watch God lift you right up.
Don’t be weak – redefine tough.
Be the diamond in the rough.
RISE UP!
Rise above what divides us.
Love what unites us.
Despite what’s come lately, Johnny Unitas!
Stop Monday quarterbacking – align the rush!
Don’t just stand aside, stumped.
Own your gifts – lead and guide us!
Find your passion – inspire us!
Take what you hate and ignite us!
RISE UP!
Don’t just despise Trump.
Despite Trump,
Let your prayers rise up!
You know – on some ol’
When they go low, we go high enough
To get on our knees
and RISE UP!
Stop stalling and drive us!
Stop balling – your shine’s rust.
Stop applauding ungodly Midas.
We’re all faulty but in Christ, we’re RIGHTEOUS!
Stop dying for riches – be a live trust!
Be alive, trust –
‘Cause when the tide comes,
If you’re still idle and stuck
At the end of your idol’s run,
You’ll wish you had climbed the rungs
When the bells ‘tolled’ you to lay aside your stunts
to RISE UP before…
…Time’s up.
