Music/lyrics: John Carlson, 1981
Everybody follows the loud prophet
Or the quiet sage
Or maybe you’re a man who heeds only himself
All in all, by and by
Prophet and sage will die
And in the end you stand alone
Will you rise again?
Will you rise again?
You read the book you decide to choose
Every day you win or lose
And in your heart you long for peace
Get all you can, do your best
Take your downers, you need your rest
In the end you stand alone
Will you rise again?
Will you rise again?
The Lord Almighty, clothed in flesh
Came to earth and took the test
And in the end He stood alone
All the angels wondered why
Their Master would come and die
And as they watched He died alone
But He rose again
Yes He rose again!
Will you rise again?
Will you rise again?
