Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sun on the porch rail
Dust on my boots
Mama on the phone said
"Boy, don't you lose heart"
Got a hard week behind me
A long road ahead
But grace rides with me
Like a song in my chest
[Pre-Chorus]
If I'm weak, You stay strong
If I fall, You hold on
Through the night, through the rain
I can hear Your name
[Chorus]
Rise on home
Rise on home
By Your hand
I can go
Rise on home
Rise on home
You light the way
And I know
[Verse 2]
Old barn door open
Wind in the hay
Neighbors wave me over
Say, "Come eat today"
Kids in the yard are laughing
Faith in their eyes
Heaven feels closer
When love fills a house
[Pre-Chorus]
If I'm weak, You stay strong
If I fall, You hold on
Through the night, through the rain
I can hear Your name
[Chorus]
Rise on home
Rise on home
By Your hand
I can go
Rise on home
Rise on home
You light the way
And I know
[Bridge]
When the road gets long
And my strength runs thin
I will lift my hands
Let the mercy in
Every bend, every tear
You have walked before
Now I sing it loud
You are my reward
[Final Chorus]
Rise on home
Rise on home
By Your hand
I can go
Rise on home
Rise on home
You light the way
And I know
Rise on home
Rise on home
My heart is Yours
Till I'm home
Sun on the porch rail
Dust on my boots
Mama on the phone said
"Boy, don't you lose heart"
Got a hard week behind me
A long road ahead
But grace rides with me
Like a song in my chest
[Pre-Chorus]
If I'm weak, You stay strong
If I fall, You hold on
Through the night, through the rain
I can hear Your name
[Chorus]
Rise on home
Rise on home
By Your hand
I can go
Rise on home
Rise on home
You light the way
And I know
[Verse 2]
Old barn door open
Wind in the hay
Neighbors wave me over
Say, "Come eat today"
Kids in the yard are laughing
Faith in their eyes
Heaven feels closer
When love fills a house
[Pre-Chorus]
If I'm weak, You stay strong
If I fall, You hold on
Through the night, through the rain
I can hear Your name
[Chorus]
Rise on home
Rise on home
By Your hand
I can go
Rise on home
Rise on home
You light the way
And I know
[Bridge]
When the road gets long
And my strength runs thin
I will lift my hands
Let the mercy in
Every bend, every tear
You have walked before
Now I sing it loud
You are my reward
[Final Chorus]
Rise on home
Rise on home
By Your hand
I can go
Rise on home
Rise on home
You light the way
And I know
Rise on home
Rise on home
My heart is Yours
Till I'm home
Style of Music
1990s Christian country anthem at 120 BPM with bright acoustic guitar strumming, brushed drums, steel guitar lift, and a radio-ready singalong chorus; verse rides a steady campfire groove, pre-chorus opens with stacked harmony and rising snare, chorus hits full with gang vocals and handclaps, bridge pulls down to voice and guitar before a bigger final lift; lead vocal warm and close-mic, with doubled hooks, short delay throws, and subtle ad-lib answers; ear candy includes mandolin fills, a lifted cymbal swell, and a felt piano tag; mix is clean, punchy, and wide, country, bright, acoustic, uplifting
