Lyrics

Hope is Rising

I see the river rising
And hear the trees are moaning
You can tell a storm is brewing

There's grey clouds rolling
Think I see some trouble coming
Do you feel that warm wind blowing

I see the river rising
I can feel that strange wind blowing in
You can see a storm is looming

I know the rivers rising
I can sense the tension growing
Can you feel it can you feel it

Take all your things
Your most precious things
And hold them tight
Don't let them drown
Don't let them drown
Oh noooo
I see the river rising

Another day is coming
Another day is rolling in
A better day is coming

You never know when
The sun is going to shine again
But hold on here it comes

Here it comes
Yeah the sun is shining
Here it comes
I know the river is rising
But hope is rising too

Another day is dawning
Another time is drawing near
Can you feel it can you hear it

Hear the trumpet sound
And hear the angels sing
Here it comes another day is coming
Hope is rising
And the water's rising too
I know it I know it
But I tell you hope is rising
I hope you're rising too

I see the river rising
Do you feel that warm wind blowing
We can see a storm is coming soon
But we know hope is rising
Yeah hope is rising
Hope is rising
Hope is rising
I know you're rising too
