down the street of jerusalem came funeral procession
up the same lonely street
came the resurrection they mourn
the loss of a loved one
but when jesus saw their grief
he laid his hand upon him
and death had to flee
arise arise my little one arise
arise arise wipe the sleep from your eyes
i am the resurrection and i give unto you life
arise arise my little one arise
down the street of glory
someday i'm gonna stroll
in the land of milk and honey
where the saints will never grow old
when jesus comes back for us on that resurrection day
in my heart i'm so excited
i can almost hear him say
arise arise my little ones arise
arise arise wipe the sleep from your eyes
i am the resurrection and i give unto you life
arise arise my little ones arise
i am the resurrection and i give unto you life
arise arise my little ones arise
