[Verse 1]
When the fire burns around me
Still I stand, not bowed, not bound
“Even if I walk through the fire, I will not be burned”
Though the voices try to shake me
Though the lies come like a flood
I declare the blood of Jesus over me—
[Pre-Chorus]
No weapon formed shall overcome
For my Defender stands as One
Every tongue that rises—He’ll silence it
I stand in truth, I will not quit
This is my heritage, sealed by grace
His righteousness—my hiding place
He surrounds me with His mighty hand
And by His promise, I will stand
[Chorus]
I will rise, I will stand
On Your Word, I place my hand
“Be strong and courageous,” You said to me,
You go before, You fight my war
I am Yours forevermore
Through the storm, my faith will shine
“Greater is He who lives inside”
[Verse 2]
I won’t run like Jonah’s sorrow
I will rise, though weak and small
“Your grace is made perfect in weakness”
And You’ve called me through it all
Like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego
I won’t bow to fear or pride
For I know He who's defeated death
Walks with me
Jesus “my Redeemer is alive”
[Chorus]
I will rise, I will stand
On Your Word, I place my hand
“Be strong and courageous,” You said to me,
You go before, You fight my war
I am Yours forevermore
Through the storm, my faith will shine
“Greater is He who lives inside”
[Bridge]
The battle is Yours—not mine to bear
“You go before me, I will not fear”
I speak life where there is death
I breathe faith with every breath
I bind the chains of doubt and pain
“The Lord is my strength” again and again
[Final Chorus]
I will rise, I will sing
From the ashes hope will spring
I am more than what they say
“I’m a conqueror through Christ today"
Let the fire shape my soul
I press on toward Heaven’s goal
Through it all, I lift my eyes
“God is my refuge—He will rise”
