about

The Rising is a song about religion, specifically Christian religion. It is neither pro or con. But it does point out that it is exclusive. As such it has shaped our culture in a way that most people are not aware of.

lyrics

I’m rising over hills and valleys near the stream
Join the rising and find for yourself the will is real
Stop that depression – belief is what is need to be healed
Relieve aggression – hold your praise on high for to be seen
A friend; a nobody; a man like you and me
Teaching his holy word through eternity
A friend; a nobody; a man like you and me

I’m rising – I have been in the valley all this time
Join the rising – wake up see the world confused and lost to crime
In the horizon there is a plan for the ones who share his name
Curtain’s rising and judgment day will fall on us like rain
A friend; a nobody; a man like you and me
Teaching his holy word through eternity
A friend; a nobody; a man like you and me
