Carol Richard Weyler Poet Lyric

Son, Rise

            "I can hardly bear that kind of pain;
             upon Your weary brow,
            even though I know this evil deed
             must be done.
            I have been with You since Your life began;
             and I won't leave You, now.
            You're My crown, My glory,
             oh, Most Holy One.
            But; You know My eyes see deeper
             than human tongues can tell,
            and what I've seen,
             has torn my Heart apart.
            My creation is in chains,
             bound for a prison cell.
            You will be the Light
             that frees them from the dark.

            Son...rise. As sure as You were born,
             My Son, you're gonna rise again,
            come Resurrection Morn."
-------------------------------------------------------------------
            Now; somewhere up above;
             a Prince smiles at a King,
            and with Heaven's hosts,
             His children now can sing..

           "Son...rise. As sure as You were born,
             My Son, you're gonna rise again,
            come Resurrection Morn."
            
            Son...rise. And as sure as I was born,
             the Sun of Glory rose again,
            on Resurrection Morn...
