Faith – Jason Upton

let faith arise oh Lord, let faith arise
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
my hero's have failed me Lord, 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
'cause i'm learning to trust that its not you that hurt me,
learning to believe that its not you that deserted me,

i'm believing that you still love me, brokenness and all
i'm believing that you got a plan for me
i'm believing that you will restore me
i believe that you will awaken my soul
and let faith arise again, i believe..
i believe like a little child again

i'm gonna dance in my trust for 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 gonna believe in that faith again
'cause you're my creator — you're my comfort
you're the one that would never desert me
so daddy i raise my hands up to you, oh 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 hold me Lord
'cause i'm learning to trust you with the faith of a child
and have joy like again like a child
and i'm not gonna let it pull me down
i'm not gonna 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 for you

and i'm rejoicing that the fact that the bible says you are my victorious warrior
you're the one who fights for me
i dont 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 sun — its rising up, its rising up, its rising up
and i dont have to be discouraged anymore
and i dont have to fight this loneliness anymore
cause you're in my life, you're in my life more than anyone could ever be
father we're building a relationship again, just me and you
building a relationship again, just me and you.

its not about the job i have
its not about the friends i have
its not about the house i have or the social status i have
its about me and you
we're building a relationship again, just me and you
building my faith again…
