Hallelujah We Are Risin'

Intro

Mmm-mmm, oh— (oh)

Hallelujah, come on, yeah

Clap it up, clap it up

(Hey!) Hallelujah, hallelujah

Verse

I walked through night with a heavy load, yeah

Feet were tired, heart was slow (slow)

But there was a whisper on the wind, a gentle tug, a kindly pull

Said "Child, lift your eyes, I'm holdin' you, I'm holdin' you"

Pre-chorus

There’s a light that won’t quit (won’t quit), there’s a hand that won’t let go (won’t go)

When I kneel, when I call, Lord you answer, Lord you show (you show)

Every chain, every doubt — fallin’ down, fallin’ down (fallin’ down)

Chorus

Hallelujah, we are risin' (rise, rise)

Hallelujah, we are risin' (rise, rise)

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, we are risin' (rise, rise)

Praise! Praise! Praise! Praise!

Hallelujah, we are risin' (rise, rise)

Hallelujah, we are risin' (rise, rise)

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, we are risin' — yeah (rise, rise)

Verse

Mama’s hand on my head, sang a song that healed the hurt (uh-huh)

Granddaddy’s laugh in the kitchen, kept the bread and kept the church (amen)

We learned to pray through the thunder, learned to dance through the rain

Learned that sorrow’s a season, but love keeps callin’ our name (callin’ our name)

Pre-chorus

There’s a door that opens wide (open wide), there’s a road of brand new grace

When we lift our voices up (lift), heaven comes and fills the place (fills the place)

Every fear, every night — washed away, washed away (washed away)

Chorus

Hallelujah, we are risin' (rise, rise)

Hallelujah, we are risin' (rise, rise)

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, we are risin' (rise, rise)

Praise! Praise! Praise! Praise!

Hallelujah, we are risin' (rise, rise)

Hallelujah, we are risin' (rise, rise)

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, we are risin' — yeah (rise, rise)
