THE TRUTH WILL ALWAYS RISE

When the truth is being concealed

We are merely buying time,

Because it will always eventually resurrect

As it bursts forth when it will shine.

The truth is a well-nourished spring;

It’s a seed that cannot be buried,

Because it always needs to present itself

Since in integrity it’s carried.

The truth will always rise

Because no darkness will oppress,

The fruitful nature of all things true

Since it cannot be suppressed.

If we try to cover any lie

Then more lies will be required,

To justify the initial one

And in the meantime create fires.

The truth will always resurrect

Because its nature is filled with light;

It breaks strongholds and exposes the dark

And will always make things right.

The truth is in God’s forgiveness

Since His promises are true,

And if we confess our transgressions

He will make all things new.

The truth can never fall or collapse

Because its foundation is sure and steady,

Placed in the right hand of the Father

Where all truth cannot be buried.

What is truth? Asked Pilate

As the Truth stood before him,

But found no fault in the Anointed One

With no blame to underpin.

Jesus Christ is the epitome

Of purity and every truth,

And although He died and He was buried 

His resurrection is living proof.

The grave could not contain our Christ

Because death had no grip on Him,

Since the truth will always resurrect

To overcome and win.

Hallelujah to the Risen King;

Victorious in every way,

Where all His suffering was never in vain

Securing our eternal days.
