Rise Up

Oh, my heart wants to erase what the enemy's done to you,
It turned everything true and loving and made you confused,
It turned the beauty into a beast to make you second guess,
You pulled everything apart and it took your rest,
As I sit by Your bedside and hold your hand,
I can see the dillusion and understand,
What made no sense to others I could see,
The hurt and the anger rose up inside of me,
The love was so strong I couldn't let go,
Protecting this love is all I know,
