作词 : Springsteen

Can't see nothin' in front of me

Can't see nothin' coming up behind

I make my way through this darkness

I can't feel nothing but this chain that binds me

Lost track of how far I've gone

How far I've gone' how high I've climbed

On my back's a sixty pound stone

On my shoulder a half mile of line

Come on up for the rising

Come on up' lay your hands in mine

Come on up for the rising

Come on up for the rising tonight

Left the house this morning

Bells ringing filled the air

I was wearin' the cross of my calling

On wheels of fire I come rollin' down here

Come on up for the rising

Come on up' lay your hands in mine

Come on up for the rising

Come on up for the rising tonight

Li'li' li'li'li'li' li'li'li

There's spirits above and behind me

Faces gone black' eyes burnin' bright

May their precious blood bind me

Lord' as I stand before your fiery light

Li'li' li'li'li'li' li'li'li

I see you Mary in the garden

In the garden of a thousand sighs

There's holy pictures of our children

Dancin' in a sky filled with light

May I feel your arms around me

May I feel your blood mix with mine

A dream of life comes to me

Like a catfish dancin' on the end of my line

Sky of blackness and sorrow a dream of life

Sky of love' sky of tears dream of life

Sky of glory and sadness a dream of life

Sky of mercy' sky of fear a dream of life

Sky of memory and shadow a dream of life

Your burnin' wind fills my arms tonight

Sky of longing and emptiness dream of life

Sky of fullness' sky of blessed life

Come on up for the rising

Come on up' lay your hands in mine

Come on up for the rising

Come on up for the rising tonight

Li'li' li'li'li'li' li'li'
