Like a hawk flying high above the city Like a sunset cloud in a golden flame Like a leaf on the wind moving cross the water Watch me rise Watch me rise Watch me rise Watch me rise above Resting, oh resting in his love In his love In his love See me as a boy safe beside my father See my father safe when he was a boy Time marches on, the wheel is always turning Watch me rise Watch me rise Watch me rise Watch me rise above Resting, oh resting in his love In his love Watch me rise above If you cry for me, don't do it for my sorrow If you cry for me, do it for my joy And let your tears fall upon the flowers So they rise Rise Rise So they rise above Resting, oh resting in his love Watch me rise Watch me rise Oh, just watch me rise Just watch me rise above Resting, oh resting in his love In his love Watch me rise above
