Rise Up Oh Deborah Song Lyrics
Darkness suffocates the morning
We can hardly breathe
Hope is just a distant memory
When will we be free?
I hear a whisper from the heavenlies
As the battle lines are drawn:
“Wake up the daughter I have chosen
For the reason she was born”
So why are you sitting on the back row
When He has called you to the front lines?
Are you still waiting for another sign?
Don’t let them leave you tongue-tied
Rise up oh Deborah! And prophesy!
Rise up Jael! Release your battle cry!
Fear not oh Esther! This is your time!
Release the fire inside
‘Cause the daughter of a lion is a lion too
Your father roars and so must you
Rise up my sister like an eagle and fly!
You are Deborah, so arise and shine!
Darkness suffocates our vision
We no longer dream
Shadows swallow us in silence
We’re afraid to sing
But I remember ancient melodies
That a prophetess once sung
And I know the Spirit of the Lord
Is breathing songs into your lungs
Why do you think that you’re disqualified?
Who has been telling you these lies?
You bear the image of the living God
Your mouth was not made to be quiet!
Why do you wait for somebody else to do what He called you to?
Will you tell it to His face that He made a mistake when He chose you?
Rahab was a prostitute
Sarah was too old
Mary wasn’t married yet
And Anna was a widow
Mary Magdalene had demons!
And Ruth was not a Jew
Rebekah was the barren one
And Hagar was abused
Why do you wait for somebody else to do what He called you to?
Will you tell it to His face that He made a mistake when He chose you?
