Many will rise and fall at the birth of this dangerous boy
“Rise and Fall”
By Daniel Renstrom, 2009
The dawn of the light
Is breaking tonight
At the birth of this dangerous boy.
And shepherds and kings
Bow down and sing
At the birth of this dangerous boy.
Many will rise and fall
At the birth of this King, the birth of this King.
Many will rise and fall
At the birth of this King, the birth of this King.
Those who oppose
Stumble on this Stone
At the birth of this dangerous King
But many will hear
Believing in fear
Will hope in this dangerous King.
–Daniel Renstrom, “Rise and Fall,” On The Incarnation. Catapult, 2009.
