Rise Above - Lyrics - Heart In Hand
The Heart in Hand or Heart-in-Hand is a symbol of a heart in an open palm, and is symbolic of charity, given from the heart. It is an easily recognizable symbol in the Northeastern United States and used by the Shakers as a pictoral reminder of the words of Mother Ann Lee, the founder of the Shaker sect, who promoted a simple life of hard work and spirituality, "Put your hands to work, and your hearts to God." The image is typical of the Shaker attitude, and also implies a loving welcome.

I have been down and felt rejection
Sometimes it feels like there is no going back
But I'm standing on my own two feet again, and ready to take on the world, the world
Rise above
And every little step you take, feels like you've taken two steps back
You're still alive
You'll be the only one to look out for me, for me.
Take my hand, let's end this now
I must move on
You took my blood, my sweat, my tears
Never let anyone tell you any different
Be yourself, never change, rise above.
