Rise for Tomorrow
Verse 1
Hear the call from city to shore,
In this land of diverse lore,
A time to stand, a time to rise,
Underneath our Southern skies.
With open hearts, we make our plea,
To the churches far and wide,
Join us in this crucial hour,
In unity, we stride.
Chorus
Rise for tomorrow, today we stand,
With faith and love, hand in hand.
For a future bright and fair,
In this mission, we all share.
Verse 2
From the red earth to the sea’s foam,
In this vast land we call home,
We voice a song of unity,
For peace and harmony.
In every church, in every town,
Let the bells of freedom sound,
Gather ’round, let’s make it clear,
For justice, we persevere.
Chorus
Rise for tomorrow, today we stand,
With faith and love, hand in hand.
For a future bright and fair,
In this mission, we all share.
Bridge
The time is now, the call is clear,
A gathering of hearts sincere,
Let’s spread the word, let’s light the flame,
In love and peace, we proclaim.
Verse 3
This is our call, let’s not delay,
For our unity, let’s pray,
In every step, in every word,
Let our unity be heard.
Chorus
Rise for tomorrow, today we stand,
With faith and love, hand in hand.
For a future bright and fair,
In this mission, we all share.
Outro
As we march towards the day,
Let’s lead in love, show the way,
For a world of peace, let’s vow,
“Never Again Is Now.”
