[Orchestral Intro]

[Choir: Whispered and layered]

Rise… rise…

Find the fire… find the flame…

Rise… rise…

Call your name…

[Verse I]

(Male lead)

I walked beneath a borrowed sky,

afraid that I'd betray,

The thousand voices pulling my heart

that taught my soul the way.

But somewhere deep beyond the fear,

a silent thunder burned,

Their every word became the spark

from which my strength returned.

[Verse 2]

(Male lead)

No crown was waiting in the dark,

no hand to lead me through.

The road was carved by every choice,

I never thought I knew.

And when I faced the mirror plain

with nothing left to hide,

I found the strength was never lost,

it lived right here inside.

[Pre-Chorus]

(Duet with rising choir underneath)

(Female lead)

No more waiting for the world,

to set me free tonight..

(Male lead)

No more bending to the fear,

that kept me from the light..

(Duet: Male and female lead)

We are the voices of the broken

learning how to fly,

And every soul can touch the stars

when they want to reach that high!

[Chorus]

(Full Choir enters powerfully)

Finding power in your life

Is finding freedom in your soul,

To be the fire that leads you onward,

To be the hand that takes control.

No chains can hold the heart inspired,

No night can steal the morning sun.

When you become your own resolve,

The battle’s fought,

the victory’s won!

(Choir: Counter harmony)

Rise! Rise!

Let the spirit open wide!

Rise! Rise! Rise!

There’s a kingdom born inside!

[Verse 3]

(Male lead and Female lead alternating)

(Male lead)

The mountain shakes beneath the feet of those who dare to stand,

(Female lead)

And oceans part before the soul that makes it's own demand.

(Male lead)

No savior waits beyond the storm, no miracle descends,

(Female lead)

Your power grows the moment that your fear and worry ends.

[Verse 4]

(Duet building larger)

We are not shadows

meant to fade beneath another’s flame!

We are the authors

of the hope,

no darkness and no blame!

And every step through suffering,

is how things might align.

For freedom is the strength to say,

this life and dream are mine.

[Bridge]

(Massive orchestral swell and choir layered in waves)

If the world falls down around you..

stand taller!

If the fear screams out to drown you..

sing louder!

Every scar becomes a river.

Every chain can break apart.

When the courage you’ve been searching for,

was beating in your heart!

(Choir)

In your heart!

In your heart!

The fire was there from the start!

[Final Chorus]

(Key change and full anthem choir)

Finding power in your life,

Is finding freedom to believe,

That you can stand against the dark,

Be the strength that you receive!

No throne is greater than the spirit

Rising fearless from the flames,

When you become your own resolve,

The world will know your name!

(FULL CHOIR with layered harmonies)

Rise! Rise! Rise!

Hear the heavens roar tonight!

Rise! Rise! Rise!

Power sets your soul alight!

Rise! Rise! Rise!

There is freedom in the fire!

Rise! Rise! Rise!

Lifting up your spirit higher!

[Outro]

Finding power…

Finding freedom…

Be the reason…

That you rise…!

You rise…!

You rise…!

(Full choir ‘s final sustained chord)

RISE!!
