The city cries in darkness,
the sky is lit with fear.
A child is lost in silence
where joy once filled the air.
The world keeps turning a blind eye,
pretending not to see
but something deep within us
won’t let our hearts retreat.

We feel Your Spirit stirring,
a fire that breaks our fear.
You call us, Lord of mercy—
“Stand up and persevere!”

We rise for peace, we face the thunder.
We choose the love they cast asunder.
No war again—our cry will never cease.
We lift the poor, we heal the broken.
Our faith is loud, our courage unbroken.
We stand as one—
We rise, we rise for peace.

We walk where sorrow lingers,
we listen to the pain.
We stand beside the weary
whose lives are marked by war.
If justice is our mission,
then love must lead the way—
the Vincentian path of service
that fights for hope today.

Your Spirit keeps us moving,
refusing to give in.
We’re young, but we are ready—
let Your new world begin!

Chorus

We won’t be silent anymore,
we won’t turn away again.
Your love is calling us to rise
and take the side of pain.
And when the world grows colder,
our hope will still remain—
We rise, we rise for peace,
in every life, every name.

Chorus

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Listen—
We’re the voice in the streets when the night grows cold,
the hands of the poor turned brave and bold.
We stand for a world where the wounds are healed,
where truth breaks lies and the light is revealed.
No bombs, no hate—love’s stronger than violence.
We fight with compassion, we won’t keep silence.
If powers build walls, we’ll tear ‘em apart—
’cause God lights peace in a burning heart.
Weapons of love—that’s how we roll.
Justice in our steps, mercy in our soul.
So listen up, nations, your violence must cease—
the Vincentian youth are rising for peace!

Chorus

Never again the hatred.
Never again the fear.
Together we choose justice—
and God is always here.
We rise for peace…
We rise for peace.
