Rise and Build

[Verse 1] The stones lie shattered the gates torn wide A city in ruins where dreams collide But hear the call let the echoes ring Rise and build for hope will spring [Chorus] Rise and build let the fire ignite Together we stand through the darkest night With hands and hearts we’ll mend the divide Rise and build with courage as our guide [Verse 2] The work is heavy the road is steep But strength is found where the faithful leap Nehemiah stands his voice is clear He turns the fear into purpose here [Chorus] Rise and build let the fire ignite Together we stand through the darkest night With hands and hearts we’ll mend the divide Rise and build with courage as our guide [Bridge] This is the moment the tide will turn Through ash and dust the spirit burns A leader rises a people unite In every shadow there shines a light [Chorus] Rise and build let the fire ignite Together we stand through the darkest night With hands and hearts we’ll mend the divide Rise and build with courage as our guide
