[Verse] Empty chairs, a quiet room, Candles flicker in the gloom, Whispers of the days gone by, Tears fall soft, but still I try. [Pre-Chorus] But in the silence, something grows, A light that only healing knows. [Chorus] I’m rising up, from shadows deep, With every breath, new hope I keep. Your love’s a flame that lights my way, On this birthday, I’ll be okay. I’m rising up, I’m standing tall, Held in grace, I won’t let go at all. From empty seats, my heart will sing, With God’s own joy, my soul takes wing. [Verse] Memories like ocean tides, Sometimes crash, sometimes they hide, But in the calm, I hear a song, A melody where I belong. [Pre-Chorus] And through the sorrow, I have found, A peace that lifts me off the ground. [Chorus] I’m rising up, from shadows deep, With every breath, new hope I keep. Your love’s a flame that lights my way, On this birthday, I’ll be okay. I’m rising up, I’m standing tall, Held in grace, I won’t let go at all. From empty seats, my heart will sing, With God’s own joy, my soul takes wing. [Bridge] Though the table’s bare, Your love fills the air, A healing touch that’s always there. In every tear, Your promise shines clear, You turn my grief to joy sincere. [Chorus] I’m rising up, from shadows deep, With every breath, new hope I keep. Your love’s a flame that lights my way, On this birthday, I’ll be okay. I’m rising up, I’m standing tall, Held in grace, I won’t let go at all. From empty seats, my heart will sing, With God’s own joy, my soul takes wing. [Outro] With God’s own joy, my soul takes wing, I’m rising up, and I will sing.
