When she crying, when she's hurting,
When she's fallen and can't go on
When she broken into pieces,
In her mourning has lost her song
Who will help the church?
Who will rise up?
Who will rise up?
How long will we wait?
How much will it take?
Who will help the church?
Who will rise up?
Who will rise up?
When she's crawling thru the ashes,
And she's calling out for help
And when she reaching from her kneeling,
She needs strength now, beyond herself
Who will help the church?
Who will rise up?
Who will rise up?
For every brother who has need
And every sister on her knees
We'll show the mercy we've received in our lives
And all the world will finally see
The love that makes a family
And He's alive in you and me.
We will rise!
Who will help the church?
Who will rise up?
Who will rise up?
How long will we wait?
How much will it take?
Who will rise up?
Who will rise up?
We will rise up.
We will rise up.
We will respond.
