The Crucified - Rise lyrics

when my life was empty when my life was dead the pain was taking over and i wanted life to end "it's time...to say... goodbye...for good..." then one day God showed me gave me a reason to live showed me there was hope in the love he gives rise - rise and hold your head up high stand - stand you are his child we've been in bondage for too long it's time to rise up, in him be strong we'll leave the past behind in him move on rise my God is a shield about me and he is the lifter of my head satan tries to cut me down my God always protects in my God...no wickedness... is found...and so satan night and day tries to stop me seeking out to destroy my God turns his snares upon himself rendering null and void don't despair keep the faith keep fighting, in his word be courageous and strong we shall have victory for it's written and we are the children of God the gates of hell shall not prevail there's a light at the end of the tunnel a beacon to all who seek we shall have victory so soon soon taste victory
