Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] [Piano and harp arpeggios Distant choir] Softly now In the hush before the storm Hands still shaking From the battles we were born [Verse 1] [male vocal] I walked through fire Through the ash and the iron rain Carved every promise into armor over pain You were the lantern in a sky that never dawned Calling my name Pulling me on [female vocal] I traced your footsteps in the dust of broken days Held to the spark inside the smoke and metal haze If this is ending Let it shine Let it blaze I won’t let go I won’t look away [Chorus] [male & female Big choir] With arms wide open We face the thunder as it falls Let the storm come closer We stand unbroken through it all If the world starts closing We tear the gates and breach the wall With arms wide open We rise We rise We rise and never fall [Verse 2] [male vocal] Steel-winged shadows circle high above the ground Fear like a drum in every heartbeat Every sound But when you took my hand The tremor turned to roar I found a voice I never heard before [female vocal] I see the future in the cracks of shattered stone Not made of kingdoms Made of hearts that beat as one If this is all we have Then let it all ignite I’ll stand by you In the teeth of night [Chorus] [male & female Bigger choir and brass] With arms wide open We face the thunder as it falls Let the storm come closer We stand unbroken through it all If the world starts closing We tear the gates and breach the wall With arms wide open We rise We rise We rise and never fall [Bridge] [Half-time Strings and harp Then build] [male vocal] Take my fear Lay it on your heart [female vocal] Take my doubt Tear it clean apart [male & female] If this is the last song we ever get to sing Let it shake the dark Let it crown us kings [Key change Double-time kick Full choir] [male & female] With scars like banners We raise them high into the sky Every broken chapter Now a pair of wings to fly [Final Chorus] [male & female Full choir Trumpets blazing] With arms wide open We face the thunder as it falls Let the storm come closer We stand unbroken through it all If the night starts closing We light a flame above it all With arms wide open We rise We rise We rise and never fall With arms wide open We rise We rise We rise and never fall
