Rise Today!

Christian Song
Lyrics by RB
Thank you Lord, for this day
Not because the sun is bright
And even though the sky is grey
You are its heart, you are its light!
[chorus]
Oh in my heart arise Thy Son!
Crest the rocks, with glorious ray!
Shine Thy light to every one!
And in me rise today!
I want to pray a prayer all day
And ask for nothing in particular
Spend all the day with you and stay
Near to you, so near, just here
[chorus]
Oh in my heart arise Thy Son!
Crest the rocks, with glorious ray!
Shine Thy light to every one!
And in me rise today!
Did you see? The other day?
Is something I might say!
“Oh look, the deer leaps out the break”!
or “Hear this scripture, hear it speak”!
[chorus]
Oh in my heart arise Thy Son!
Crest the rocks, with glorious ray!
Shine Thy light to every one!
And in me rise today!
Maybe ask, yes, in the end
Ask for gift for promise spent,
Ask for all the liberty, to live in joy
To be set free
[chorus]
Oh in my heart arise Thy Son!
Crest the rocks, with glorious ray!
Shine Thy light to every one!
And in me rise today!
Oh Lord! I want to breathe the air
of Heaven, home, its atmosphere!
Not squabble here amongst the dust
But trust in you, to self distrust
[chorus]
Oh in my heart arise Thy Son!
Crest the rocks, with glorious ray!
Shine Thy light to every one!
And in me rise today!
