Verse 1

When you see the road ahead

that you've been down before

When you're half way to no where

and you can't pay the toll

Cont. pattern

You're hanging onto mercy

withered on the vine

With your feet on the ground, your head in the clouds

and your heart on the line

Pre-chorus

Open up your eyes

Chorus

You've got to rise up (rise up)

when this life has got you down

You've got to look up (look up)

when you search & nothings found

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the love that's here and now

It's coming down

So rise up now.

And all the lambs roar like lions

And all the prisoners breaking their chains

And all the poor find their treasure

Cause heaven is coming this way. x2
