Lyrics:
Hannah, a woman like you and me, who could not see a way out of her trouble. Hannah, a woman who trusted in God. Stood up and got her prayers heard by the Lord. Rise up and trust. Rise up and go. Rise up and know. The Lord is with you, the Lord is with you.
Are we not women just like her. Who sometimes feel life is not always fair? Let us be women just like her. Who know it’s God who takes care of all our needs. Rise up and trust. Rise up and go. Rise up and know. The Lord is with you, the Lord is with you.
Let us be women who know by heart. The Lord will lead us and show us where to start. Let’s rise together and trust in the Lord. Let’s rise together and trust in his word. Rise up and trust. Rise up and go. Rise up and know. The Lord is with you, the Lord is with you.
