rise again

Come back up

Rise again means to return to life, prominence, or power after death, defeat, or decline.

The phrase carries religious overtones from Christian belief in resurrection: Christ is risen; he will rise again.

More broadly, it describes any comeback or renewal: The empire will rise again, She rose again from bankruptcy to build a new company.
