He Arises Gospel Worship Song | He Breaks the Chains Where the Burdened Are Pressed
He Arises Gospel Worship Song – God Defends the Oppressed by Malachi Ben-David
“He arises, He arises for the oppressed… Breaks the chains where the burdened souls are pressed.”
Malachi Ben-David’s fiery “He Arises” is a bold Gospel Worship anthem that calls God to rise in defense of the oppressed, the widow, the fatherless, and the burdened. It names real injustice — stolen land, crushing taxes, false courtrooms, and iron yokes — and answers it with the thundering promise that heaven hears the cry and God will bring swift deliverance.
This scripture-rooted gospel worship song is for anyone waiting on God to make it plain — and for the church to stand with the weak.
The Story & Heart of “He Arises”
The song starts on a crime scene: the royal seizure of Naboth’s vineyard through false witnesses and a rigged court. It stacks more injustice on top — heavy taxes, genocidal decrees, trampling dignity in courtrooms — and then turns to the answer: God sent prophets with warning, and then He set the record right.
The chorus is a church-coming-to-its-feet declaration: “He arises, He arises for the oppressed… Swift deliverance is coming, God will rise and make it plain.” It’s old school gospel in its prophetic mode — honest about the evil, confident in God’s justice.

Why This Song Matters
“He Arises” is a much-needed gospel worship song for a church that sometimes stays silent when the oppressed cry out.
