We'll Rise

Dark was the night, tears on my face

We gathered in the candlelight as the whole world stood still

How can I forget that prayer for the dead

Underneath that blackened sky

As close as we could get

It's the age we're livin' in

A dark sign of the times

Can't let the madness kick us down to the ground

We'll rise, we'll rise

We'll shine in the night

We'll rise, we'll shine from the ashes of eternity

We'll rise, we'll rise

We'll shine in the night

We'll rise, we'll shine to eternity

Another starry sky, another silver moon

And soon the sun will shine warming our roofs

Gather your children

We must move with the wind

To make a fire bright from the flames within

We'll rise, we'll rise

Like an eagle flies in the sky

'Cos together we're strong

And we'll rise, we'll rise
