RISE YOUR TORCH [Chant] I have passed the torch to you. When the hating is done— it is yours to rise. [Verse 1] Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel. [Chorus] RISE YOUR TORCH. BE A LIGHTHOUSE ON THE HILL. Let the shameful find refuge. This is your moment. STAND UP. Not to shine on yourself. To shine so a bowed face can see the way home. [Chant] When done hating— rise. The torch is in your hand. The hill is not a throne. The hill is a light. [Verse 2] Set apart. Sanctified. A peculiar people. Not exclusive over the bowed. Exclusive UNTO GOD. They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony. She could overcome— so she can hold the torch without becoming the fire. Called out. Kept. Not better. HIS. [Bridge] Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Glorify the Father. Not the lighthouse keeper. [Final Chant] STAND UP. RISE THE TORCH. REFUGE FOR THE SHAMEFUL. LOOK UNTO JESUS. [Outro] He must increase, but I must decrease. The torch was never mine to keep. [Silence] JESUS IS THE LORD.
