ARISE, EVERYONE, RISE has words and music by James J. Machan. A wonderful text about music uniting us in harmony! TTBB a cappella Choir. Duration: 0:54

TEXT:

Arise, ev’ryone, rise!

Arise and let your songs be heard through all the earth!

Let your voice ring loud and clear,

Dispel the ages’ hate and fear.

Dedicate yourselves to beauty,

This be now a living duty:

With music, bring you hope and good

To people, love and brotherhood.

Arise, lift up your hearts

And sing for joy!
