David Wilcox - Rise lyrics

from Into The Mystery

..............................................

I see you dreaming by the ocean window

I hear you breathing like the waves upon the shore

The tide is turning on your time of sorrow

You will never be so lonesome any more

The breezes whisper as the curtain dances

Your dreams are deeper than the mystery of the sea

The sun itself is in the room beside you

With a message of how good your life can be

I know that a heart can just get buried

Stone by stone, crushing hope until it dies

Far away, but the message somehow carries

Beloved, it is time for you to rise. Time for you to RISE UP...

With a sudden sense of wonder | Though the promise goes unspoken

As the joy comes to your eyes | When the joy comes to your eyes

From the burden you?ve been under | For your soul was never broken

Beloved, it is time for you to rise, time for you to rise.

There?s nothing wrong with taking time for sleeping

Your eyes are weary with the things that you have seen

A deeper promise your soul is keeping

Right in time for this appointment in your dream

Angels whisper so as not to wake you

There?s nothing else in this whole world for you to do

But follow on to where your dream may take you

To see your footsteps from an eagle?s point of view
