[Verse 1]
When our time runs out
When the lights fade down
Will we say we lived for You?
’Cause we fall apart
We’ve got fragile hearts
Still we’re reaching for the truth
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
We get lost, we break
We make the same mistakes
But Your mercy pulls us through
⸻
[Chorus – Lead + Choir Response]
Lead: Standing on the rooftops
Choir: Everybody lift Your name up
Lead: Standing on the rooftops
Choir: Even in our weakness
Lead: Standing on the rooftops
Choir: Let it echo through the skyline
Lead: This is all we’ve got now
Choir: Jesus, You can change us
⸻
[Verse 2]
We’ve been running hard
With a heavy heart
Trying just to fix ourselves
Every empty space
Every hidden shame
You restore what we can’t heal
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
When we lose our way
You don’t walk away
You meet us where we are
⸻
[Chorus – Bigger (Layered)]
Lead: Standing on the rooftops
Choir: Everybody lift Your name up
Lead: Standing on the rooftops
Choir: Even in our weakness
Lead: Standing on the rooftops
Choir: Let it echo through the skyline
Lead: This is all we’ve got now
Choir: Jesus, You can change us
(Add harmony + crowd vocals here for power)
⸻
[Bridge – Build]
Lead (soft):
So do we all just waste our time?
Fighting battles in our mind?
Choir (rising):
You don’t leave us
You redeem us
Lead (strong):
Trying hard to be enough…
(Pause)
All: NOOOOO—
All (full):
You take the broken pieces
Turn our scars to meaning
You don’t leave us the same
You rewrite our story
⸻
[Breakdown]
Our life’s too short
To stay the same
Our life’s too short
Not to be changed
⸻
[Final Chorus – Explosive Choir]
Lead: Standing on the rooftops
Choir: Everybody lift Your name up
Lead: Standing on the rooftops
Choir: You’re stronger than our weakness
Lead: Standing on the rooftops
Choir: Let it echo through the skyline
Lead: This is all we’ve got now
Choir: Jesus, come and change us
⸻
[Outro – Choir Loop]
Change us now
Change us now
Change us now
From the inside out…
From the inside out…
