Rise Up and Walk
Rise up, O man, be strong,
And walk with footsteps sure;
Leave error off, the night is gone,
And Christ has made you pure.
Rise up, O man, behold
The Name of names demands
Your heart and mind and body whole,
Healed by His precious hands.
Rise up, O man, and work
With surety of mind;
No longer can you duty shirk,
With deeds to do in kind.
Rise up, O man, and praise,
And walk forth with your might;
Lift high your banner, anthems raise,
In tribute to the Light.
