lyrics: Robbie Seay Band



I want to state that I love this band, before they get huge... this song is actually being featured on one of the American Idol commercials... so it's only a matter of time, right?

"Rise," by Robbie Seay Band
-----
Slow down, be still
Let go, we will
Be here, be now.

If you choose to love,
To know that the call
Is to give all you are
To give love away

Rise, rise, people of love rise
People of love rise,
Give yourself away



Slow down, just breathe
Be still believe
Be here be now

Slow down and see
It's all you need
Be loved and free


And to hear the call
is to give your love away

We're not safe
But we will rise
People of love rise
Give yourself away
-----

This is an obvious call for people who care about the world to act on those beliefs... not just talk about it but do it.

I love the line, "and to hear the call is to give your love away"... Jesus didn't just go around speaking spiritual ultimatums... he showed people a truly better way of life; he gave himself and his love away in all that he did.
