lyrics

Let the clouds come, they can't stop the sun from shining
Once we rise above it all
Let the waves roll in, we'll keep ourselves from drowning
Once we rise above it all

Let the ground a-quake, can't nothing fall upon us
Once we rise above it all
Let the rain pour down, won't set the mud a-sliding
Once we rise above it all

(chorus)
Arms adjoined, hearts aligned
All boats lift in the rising tide
Life's too short for just getting by
When they go low, we get high

Let the traffic slow, we'll find our way around it
Once we rise above it all
Let the wildfires grow, it's smoke it won't surround us
Once we rise above it all

(chorus)
Arms adjoined, hearts aligned
All boats lift in the rising tide
Life's too short for just getting by
When they go low, we get high

(bridge)
Every day it seems there's nothing else to do
'cept find a place to run and hide
But where there's numbers there is strength someone once said
And united we can climb

Let the walls fall down, together we'll rebuild them
Once we rise above it all
Let the strangers come, we'll soon count them among us
Once we rise above it all
