We'll Rise

Dark was the night

Tears on my face

We gathered in the candlelight

As the whole world stood stillHow can I forget that prayer for the dead

Underneath that blackened sky

As close as we could getIt's the age we're livin' in

A dark sign of the times

Can't let the madness

Kick us down to the groundWe'll rise, we'll rise

We'll shine in the night

We'll rise, we'll shine

From the ashes of eternityWe'll rise, we'll rise

We'll shine in the night

We'll rise, we'll shine to eternityAnother starry sky

Another silver moon

And soon the sun will shine

Warming our roofsGather your children

We must move with the wind

To make a fire bright

From the flames withinWe'll rise, we'll rise

Like an eagle flies in the sky

'Cos together we're strong

And we'll rise, we'll rise
