Rest and Rise (feat. Steve Davis & Jordan Colle) | SONS THE BAND & TRIBL
I wake up covered in hallelujahs
Standing under the songs of heaven
Your presence always welcoming
Fills me with a melody

Verse 2
I wake up covered in sweet hosannas
It?s the chorus of every angel
The one they?ve sung a thousand times
Now I?m joining in with mine

Chorus
My praise is yours
Forever I will testify
Of what you?ve done
And how you?ve been there all my life
When I rest and when I rise
I will sing the love of Christ
I will testify

Verse 3
I stand up making this declaration
Your goodness is your reputation
You prove it to me more and more
I can?t help but lift

Bridge
I know I?m living in the land of promise
Everyday it overflows with goodness
You keep on showing that the best part is
You?re not going anywhere
