Arise
Hallal Music Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When all hope appears to fail
When the waves come crashing down
Around you
Everytime your teardrops fall
Even when the heartaches call
There is Someone who will know
Your sorrow
His love will never fail you
His arms are open wide
Arise!
To the open arms of Jesus
Arise!
His mercies never end
Arise!
The grave could never hold him
And now the risen Savior says to you
Arise!
When the darkness presses in
And there seems to be no friend
Who can feel your pain and know
Your sadness
Lift your eyes and see the face
Of the one who can erase
All the hopelessness that wraps
Around you
His love will never fail you
His arms are open wide
Arise!
To the open arms of Jesus
Arise!
His mercies never end
Arise!
The grave could never hold him
And now the risen Savior says to you
Arise!
Always reaching
To the fallen
Lifting up the
Weary heart
Always seeking
Always searching
Can you hear him call?
Arise!
To the open arms of Jesus
Arise!
His mercies never end
Arise!
The grave could never hold him
And now the risen Savior says to you
Arise!
To the open arms of Jesus
Arise!
His mercies never end
Arise!
The grave could never hold him
And now the risen Savior says to you
Arise!
Arise!
