Dominic Balli - Rise Up lyrics

rate me

Masses crowded to see miracles by moonlight Like the men on the roof with their friend that night They let him down by his bed he lay at the feet of the King But he would not stay cuz the healer spoke as the prophets said Chorus: Son rise up stop your dying You’ve been sleeping so long now Rise up no more crying The night’s come and gone now, nights come and gone now Ruler by the day paranoid by night He came while it was black for more than lack of time His blood raced in place hope to see the face His heart believed could change all history’s fate Out of the shadows came the Son of Man His words cut his heart like only fire can As the man stand still and ill hardly breathing Is it possible that one man holds all I’ve been seeking Sunlight pierced night he turned away and fled But the words that he heard runnin through his head Chorus: Rise up stop your dying You’ve been sleeping so long now Rise up no more crying The night’s come and gone now Give up stop Your fighting The battle’s been won now, the conflict is done now Stand up, just stand up, son stand up and ride on He came to give life to call the lost from the night To heal the broken heart of a world that’s been scarred by the fight He gave the lame man a dance, he brought sight to the blind Gave the failure a chance, and the speechless a rhyme The life is in the blood and when they took it from him By three holes he hung and broke the burden of sin The world stood watching, mocking all corrupted within Said he saved other men, let’s see him do it again Then they buried Him The tomb sealed in hate then three day by The clouds broke open and the heavens cried Chorus: Son rise up no more dying You’ve been sleeping so long now Rise up stop their crying The nights come and gone now Get up, stop the fighting, the battles been won now Stand up just stand up Chorus: People rise up stop your dying You’ve been sleeping so long now, get up and live on Rise up no more crying The night’s come and gone now, darkness is cast out Give up stop Your fighting The battle’s been won now, the conflict is done now Stand up, stand up, just stand up Vocals: Dominic Balli, Chris Jenkins Guitars: Dominic Balli Bass: Chris McMahon Rhodes: Zoe Overton Organ: Zoe Overton Synth: Zoe Overton Drums: Mike Leasure Percussion: Luis Conte Cuts: DJ iDull (Thanks to Root Riot for these lyrics)
