lyrics

See her face
In slender moonlight
Her eyes in silver skies
She rise up in the morning
Hangs down her hair at night
Shine, lord, she shine
Shining all night long
Shine on for her manchild
Shine her sweet sad song

A blind man, he once asked me
Tell me do the stars still shine bright
Well yes, sir, they would shine so sweetly
If it were not for these damned city lights

Shine, yes sir they shine
Shine oh all night long
Shine they fire ascendin’
Shine their sweet sad song

I said rise rise rise and shine
(Even when you’re feeling down)
I said rise rise rise and shine
(Get yourself off the ground)
I said rise rise rise and shine
(Even when you’re feeling down
Rise (rise) (RISE)

Midnight, she lies serenely
Across this starlit bay
If he could see her, like I see her
Even that old blind man would say
Shine …. Oh lord … she
Shiiiine
