Music Monday ~ I Will Rise

A new week is upon us again, another music Monday for me. I am not into fancy Mr.Linkys or anything of that nature but I would love to hear what music is moving you today. Feel free to mention one of your favorite songs in a comment or post about it on your blog and leave a link.

Today I am sharing a song that I just heard for this first time this weekend,
I Will Rise by Chris Tomlin, I hope you enjoy it.



There's a peace I've come to know
Though my heart and flesh may fail
There's an anchor for my soul
I can say "It is well"

Jesus has overcome
And the grave is overwhelmed
The victory is won
He is risen from the dead

[Chorus:]
And I will rise when He calls my name
No more sorrow, no more pain
I will rise on eagles' wings
Before my God fall on my knees
And rise
I will rise

There's a day that's drawing near
When this darkness breaks to light
And the shadows disappear
And my faith shall be my eyes

Jesus has overcome
And the grave is overwhelmed
The victory is won
He is risen from the dead

[Chorus:]

And I hear the voice of many angels sing,
"Worthy is the Lamb"
And I hear the cry of every longing heart,
"Worthy is the Lamb"
[x2]

[Chorus:]

Shawntele, this is one of my favorite songs. It has helped to give me peace after my sister passed away in March. I could listen to Chris Tomlin's music all day. We saw him in concert a while back, and it was just beautiful.
