Let Faith Arise

“Faith” by Jason Upton

Let faith arise, oh Lord, let faith arise

In the deepest parts of my being, oh Lord

In the most broken parts of me, oh Lord

Friends have failed me Lord, let my faith arise

Loved ones have failed me Lord, let my faith arise

Heroes have failed me Lord, let my faith arise

Let my faith arise

Let my faith arise

Let my faith arise

Let my faith arise

I say NO to the discouragement that keeps me down

I say NO to the things that keep me back from You

And this broken heart inside of me

Broken in so many pieces

By so many circumstances

I say NO to just letting it stay that way

Because I'm learning to trust that it's not You that hurt me

I'm learning to believe that it's not You that deserted me

I'm believing that You still love me

Brokenness and all

I'm believing that You've got a plan for me

I'm believing that You will restore me

I believe that You will awaken my soul

And let, let faith arise again, I believe

I believe like a little child again

I'm gonna dance in my trust in You, oh Lord

I'm gonna dance in my love for You, oh Lord

I'm gonna laugh again

I'm gonna cry again

I'm gonna have joy, joy on the inside

Circumstances around me try to pull me down

I'm going to believe in that faith again

'Cause You're my Creator

You're my Comfort

You're the One that will never desert me

So Daddy, I raise my hands up to You Lord

I raise my hands up to You, oh Lord

And I dance with my feet, I dance with my feet

And I say, come and, come and hold me Lord

'Cause I'm learning to trust You with the faith of a child

Trust You with the faith of a child

I can have joy again like a child

I'm not going to let it come down

I'm not going to let those bullets come down

Come down and hurt me no more

'Cause I'm raising up the Shield of Faith

And the Sword of the Lord

I'm believing on your Word Lord

I'm trusting in the Word that You said

And I'm waiting on You

Waiting on You

And I'm rejoicing in the fact that the Bible says

That You are my Victorious Warrior

You're the one that fights for me

I don't have to fight anymore

You're the one that fights for me, oh Lord

My faith is rising, my faith is rising, my faith is rising

I can see You again Lord.

I can see You on the horizon of my life, oh Lord

I can see Your Son, it's rising up, it's rising up, it's rising up

And I don't have to be discouraged anymore

And I don't have to fight this loneliness anymore

'Cause You're in my life, You're in my life more than anyone can ever be

Father we're building a relationship again, just me and You

We're building a relationship again, just me and You

It's not about the job I have

It's not about the friends I have

Its' not about the house I have or the social status I have

It's about me and You

We're building a relationship again, just me and You

You're building my faith up again

Let faith arise, oh Lord!
