rise

 
reaching the heavens with a deep sigh
I will kiss the sky today and everyday with my voice

Omnipotent and Present in the house
raising the roof
this is His place
no principality will prevail

I awoke shaken hearing news of a possible third war
and nuclear threat
with an outpouring of soul I implore
please Adonai lift the heaviness of being

my spirit weep
finally, he answer saying this is his place
he is acting behind the scenes righting wrongs
bringing us into understanding
I spar, I sin, I repent

fire fell from the sky, the earth froze
in spite of the doomsayers it's still here
together we will stand
shoulder to shoulder
the horses are riding
I feel the shockwaves reverberating through me

I turn on the wheel of belief
shaking off the fear
meet the warrior in me
