Verse 1

If I could take the lights of Manhattan
And hold them all together in my hands
I would make them shine for You
I would make them shine for You
If I could climp the highest mountain
And shout with a voice like thunder
I would shake the sky for You
I would shake the sky for You

Chorus

Rise let it rise
Let Your praises fill the skies
Til' the whole world knows
Let it grow
Let Your fire within me glow
Til' the whole world knows

Verse 2

If I could take the waves of the ocean
And crash them like a cymbal
In my hands
I would let them ring for You
I would let them ring for You
If I could take the hymns of our fathers
And join them all in one mighty chorus
I would let it sing for You
I would let it sing for You

Chorus

Rise let it rise
Let Your praises fill the skies
Til' the whole world knows
Let it grow
Let Your fire within me glow
Til' the whole world knows
That You are good
And that Your love will endure
Til' the end of time
So let it rise let it rise

Bridge

Oh my soul rise up
Oh my soul rise up
Oh my soul rise up and sing

Chorus

Rise let it rise
Let Your praises fill the skies
Til' the whole world knows
Let it grow
Let Your fire within me glow
Til' the whole world knows
That You are good
And that Your love will endure
Til' the end of time
So let it rise let it rise
