Verse 1:
           F   Am
When she's crying,
           C   G
When she's hurting, 
           F  Am              G
When she's fallen and can't go on, 
           F  Am       C  G
When she's broken into pieces, 
       F   Am                 G
In her mourning, has lost her song... 


Chorus:
                  Am
Who will help the church?
                    F
The one that Christ loves?
              C
Who will rise up?
              G
Who will rise up?
                 Am
How long will we wait?
                 F
How much will it take?
              C
Who will rise up?
              G - 1 strum
Who will rise up?

Verse 2:
           F   Am
When she's crawling
            C  G
Through the ashes, 
          F  Am
And she's callin'
       G
Out for help, 
           F   Am
When she's reaching
         C   G
From her kneeling, 
          F        Am
She needs strength now
         G
Beyond herself...

How long will we wait?
                 F
How much will it take?
              C
Who will rise up?
              G
Who will rise up?

Bridge:
          F               Am
For every brother who has need, 
          F             Am
For every sister on her knees, 
               C           Am           G
We'll show the mercy we've received in our lives.
            F                  Am
And all the world will finally see
              F          Am
The love that makes a family,
          C              Am
If he's alive in you and me,
        G
We will rise...

Who will rise up?

Who will rise up?
                 Am
How long will we wait?
