Faith –Jason Upton

Let faith arise o
Lord let faith arise- in the deepest parts of my being o Lord- in the most
broken parts of me o Lord- where friends have failed me Lord let my faith
arise. Loved ones have failed me Lord, let my faith arise. Where heroes have
failed me Lord let my faith arise, let my faith arise, let my faith arise, 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 it’s not you that hurt me, I’m learning
to believe that it’s not you that deserted me. I’m believing that you still love me, brokenness and all. I’m believing that you’ve got a plan for
me. I’m believing that you will restore
me. I believe that you will awaken my soul and let, let faith arise. I believe. I believe like a little child again. I’m gonna dance in my trust in you o Lord, I’m gonna dance in my love
for you o Lord. I’m gonna laugh again,
I’m gonna cry again, I’m gonna have joy, joy on the inside. Circumstances around me can try to pull me
down, I’m gonna believe in that faith. Cause you’re my creator, you’re my comfort. You’re the one that will never desert
me. 

So daddy I raise
my hands up to you. I raise my hands up to you O 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 again like a child. Ya and
I’m not gonna let it come down, I’m not gonna let those bullets come down, come
down and hurt me no more. Cause I’m raisin
up the shield of faith and the sword of the Lord. I believe in all your word Lord, I’m trusting
in the word that You said and I’m waiting on you. I’m waiting on You. And I’m rejoicing in the fact the Bible says
that you are my victorious warrior. You’re
the one that fights for me, I don’t have to fight anymore. You’re the one that fights for me, my faith
is rising. I can see you on the horizon
of my life Lord, I can see your sun, it’s rising up and I don’t have to be
discouraged anymore.  And I don’t 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. We’re building a relationship again, just me and You. It’s not about the job I have; it’s not about
the friends I have. It’s not about the
house I have or the social status I have. It’s about me and You, we’re building a relationship again….just me
and you. You’re building my faith up.

Thus says the
Lord, he who created you, “Fear not for I have redeemed you, I have called you
by name, you are mine. When you pass
through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they shall not
overwhelm you; when you walk through the fire you will not be burned, and the
flame shall not consume you. For I am
the Lord your God. You are precious in
my eyes and honoured, and I love you, I give men in return for you, peoples in
exchange for your life. Fear not for I
am with you.” 

Thus says the God,
the Lord, who created the heavens and stretched them out, who spread out the
earth and what comes from it, who gives breath to the people on it and spirit
to those who walk in it; “I am the Lord; I have called you in righteousness; I
will take you by the hand and keep you; I will keep you as a covenant for the
people, a light to the nations, to open the eyes that are blind, to bring out
those who sit in darkness. I am the
Lord; that is my name, behold the former things have come to pass, and the new
thing I now declare…sing to the Lord a new song.”
