I will not stray
I will not betray
The one thing that i hold so sure
I will not sway
I will always convey
his love is oh so pure
[Chorus]
When the world is crushin in and your fears are lingering and you've
done all to stand, stand
When you fought the toughest fight, and your tears they dont seem light, and
you've done all to stand, stand
Stand!, Stand!, stand for what you believe
He will never leave
He will never betray you
Even when your unsure
He will never change
He will always be for you
This is the one thing is know for sure
for sure
(Chorus)
Stand, in the end, you'll still be you
One that's done all the things you set out to do
Stand, there's a cross for you to bear
Things to go through if you're goin' anywhere
Stand for the things you know are right
It's the truth that the truth makes them so uptight
Stand, all the things you want are real
You have you to complete and there is no deal
Stand, stand, stand
(Everybody, yeah)
Stand, stand, stand
Stand, you've been sitting much too long
There's a permanent crease in your right and wrong
Stand, there's a midget standing tall
And a giant beside him about to fall
Stand, stand, stand
Stand, stand, stand
Stand, they will try to make you crawl
And they know what you're sayin' makes sense at all
Stand, don't you know that you are free
Well, at least in your mind if you want to be
Everybody
Stand, stand
Stand
Na na na na na na na na na na
Stand
Na na na na na na na na na na
Stand
Na na na na na na na na na na
Stand
Na na na na na na na na na na
Stand
Open before you; the landscape of life
Vibrations shake your feet
Flashes over the horizon
As you chase what you seek
Dark parlous valleys
Lying in your way
Darkness surrounds you
And questions come with every step you take
Chorus:
The battle Rages on
Stand and be strong
Concussions shake the Earth
As smoke billows over head
Feeling beat and tired
Sometimes praying for death
Explosions ring your ears
From battles waged in life
Cling to your convictions
Preservation will keep you alive
Chorus:
The battle Rages on
Stand and be strong
Bridge:
Breath the breath of life
Speak to me assurance
those words I hide
Those words bring endurance
Chorus:
The battle Rages on
Stand and be strong
(S. Saraco, H. Hey)

Even though Im up against the wind
Stand
And I know I will survive
It is my destiny
Ah ah

To ever stand alone in the dark

And that theres a purpose and a plan
So I will stand
With my head held high
Even though Im up against the wind
And I know I will survive

To find my way through the worst times
Turn them into my finest hour
And with this strength I will move on
No matter how hard I wont fall down
So I will stand
With my head held high
Even though Im up against the wind
Stand
And I know I will survive
It is my destiny

But each timeI only get stronger
And I know Ive got the power inside
I will stand with my head held high
Even though Im up against the wind
Stand
And I know I will survive
It is my destiny

Even though Im up against the wind

And I know I will survive
It is my destiny
So I will stand with my head held high

Stand
And I know I will survive
It is my destiny
The Love we had's turned to concern
and the fire we shared no longer burns
And now Ill prove that Im a man
Ill either walk or here Ill stand
Beside you
The light in your eyes has gone dim
is it me thinking about her
Or are you thinking of him?
Well I guess well fall apart
no big deal just broken hearts
Inside you
Ahh you can take it easy
but sometimes that just wont do
There wont be no justice served
the jury is guilty theyll get what they deserve
The hangman ties us all a noose
The guilty walk with no excuse
Do you care to take a stand?
Try, try, try to understand
Should we want to remain the same?
Or do you want to see a change?
Should we want to lend a hand?
Find ourselves in other lands?
Or stand outside the door,
For it’s harder to look than ignore - new
What’s old is new, around you, what’s new?
It’s time to take a stand -- Are you there?
Or if you see a change now will you stare?
If I ask you to use your mind, do you dare?
Or will you just lean up against a wall
Cause you’re scared if you stand you might fall?
Listen to what we got to say
Here are the screams of today
We’re not telling you what to do
We’re just asking questions of you
For we want to know just where you stand
Try to understand
For we are here to take a stand
To stand on the brink of something new
What you think and what you do
Are just what we are questioning you
Can you see the missing link?
Through apathetic attitudes
What you feel and what you seek
Work a day, work a week
No, go happy lives
Day to day, are you satisfied?
Listen to what we got to say
Here are the screams of today
We’re not telling you what to do
We’re just asking questions of you
He's seen it all before, he's been there and back
Lived his life with scum on the wrong side of the track
He can't take it any more, got nothing at all
Realizes that he's got nowhere to fall
Stand on your feet and fight to take it back
Stand up again get yourself on the right track
Stand for yourself, don't fall over the edge
Stand, I'll be there 'till the very end
Wants to clean himself around but old habits, they die hard
He fought through it all, he found through it all, he fought to keep his head straight
but he'll never escape
Stand! In the end you'll still be you
One that's done all the things you set out to do.
Stand! There's a cross for you to bear
Things to go through if you're going anywhere.
(Everybody say):
Stand! For the things you know are right.
It's the truth that the truth makes them so uptight.
Stand! All the things you want are real.
You have you to complete and there is no deal.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah. Oom bah bah bah Oom bah bah bah
Stand! Stand!
Huh! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya
Stand! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya .
Stand! They will try to make you crawl.
And they know what they're saying makes no sense at all.
Stand! Don't you know that you are free?
Well, at least in your mind if you want to be.
(Everybody say):
Huh! Hah! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya.
Huh! Hah! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya. (etc. to fade)
So here I stand, Alone by the side of the road, And I'm reaching for you, Someone to hold, something to cling to. I close my eyes, I shove my hands in my pockets and smile, And the darkness drifts away, I'm at peace, if only once in a while. Well, I'm feeling hurt, And I fought back some tears of my own, But there's something to be said for the ones Who face the darkness alone. You're too cool to care; Too self-righteous to see and believe. It's a bond we'll never break; A chance for one more change of heart. You don't understand. There's nothing to say. When everything seems lost, You can bet we'll somehow find a way. Did your ever think about the ones on top? Do you have the strength to shout it ready or not? So I never thought I'd be the one complaining, But I can't believe it's been inside me all this time. so here i stand!
We all carry the cross and speak what we're taught
Lies and money become the white man's god
We've burned all our bridges one too many times
The time has come now to draw the line
Chorus:
You know you've got to
Stand, stand, stand for what you believe
You know you've got to
Stand, stand, stand for what you believe
Ohh, You got to...Stand for what you believe
Alright, alright
You got to listen now...
Express yourself in the face of change
Repress yourself, you surely seal your fate
You got to look inside, the answer lies in wait
Resurrect before it's too late
Chorus
Somebody rescue me, come down and rescue me
I know the soul of a good man has got to be free
When you stand, stand for what you believe
Solo, repeat chorus
by Bob Hartman
Based on Eph 6:13
You had a blank stare- there in your easy chair
You watch as things get out of hand
But now your eyes blink and you begin to think
Of what could happen if you stand
You think about the ground you might have lost in this round
Your eyes are open to the things that had you bound
And then you rise up from your sleep and put your foot down
You take one final grasp of air before you drown and take a
(Chorus)
Stand - having done all this
Stand - with emphasis
Stand - no analysis
Even when you don't understand
Put your armor on
Stand on the foundation
Stand - rely upon
The strength that has always been there
And now you stand firm- but not on your own terms
We have no power all alone
But you can feel safe there with your shield of faith
The inner strength in you has grown
And when you draw your sword the enemy is fair game
We're more than conquerors in Jesus' name so take a
(Chorus)
Stand all alone if there's no one around you
Stand on your own
Stand through the night - wait for the morning to bring you the strength
To finish the fight
Stand up tall- Stand or fall
Stand your ground - Don't stand down
Stand connected - Stand corrected
Stand in faith - Stand elected
Written By Rebecca St. James and Reggie Hamm
There is a time for healing
There's a time for all purposes under the sun
There's a time for laughter
There's a time to let go and a time to hold on
So we are here, but why are we waiting
Why are we acting like dead men walking
The time has arrived
For us to arise
Joining our hands united together
This is our time to be strong
This is our time to rise up
To stand and be counted
This is our time to believe
To know in our God we are free
Let the world know to Him we belong
Lord capture our hearts now
Drown out the pleasures and treasures that bind us
Give us your courage
To be strong, to be brave, and to never back down
There's no time to lose
We can't be silent
In a world that is dying to find out the truth
We've got the hope
We've got the answer
Let's lay down our all
With reckless abandon
Stand strong for what is true
Stand strong for the crucified Son
In your darkest hour He'll stand for you
Stand strong for the Holy One
WHEN IT'S TIME TO GO HOME
ONLY ONE WILL STAND FOR YOU
AND WHEN IT'S TIME TO LEAVE THIS RACE
ONLY ONE WILL STAND IN YOUR PLACE
Jesus Christ took your sin
Made it plain not to do it again
So stand strong for the cross
Without Him all are lost
WHEN IT'S TIME TO GO HOME
JESUS CHRIST WILL STAND FOR YOU
AND WHEN IT'S TIME TO LEAVE THIS RACE
JESUS CHRIST WILL STAND IN YOUR PLACE
By the blood you can be saved
So sacrifice your living today
Come to Him, He'll free your sin
With Him you will win
REPEAT CHORUS1
REPEAT CHORUS2
1,2,3,
WHEN IT'S TIME TO GO HOME
ONLY ONE WILL STAND FOR YOU
AND WHEN IT'S TIME TO LEAVE THIS RACE
Don't give up,
You're gonna see tomorrow
That you'll be on your feet again
Sometimes the world's gonna knock you over
But you will see who you are your friends
Come on, stand, up again
Come on, stand,
Stand, you're gonna run again
Your faith and patience will be your soldiers
To guide you through your troubled times
Just put one foot in front of the other
The battles are inside your mind
You have the power to face your demons
No matter how they go on time
And rid yourself of your fear and weakness
So you can start to live your life
COME ON! stand, up again
Come on, stand,
Stand, you're gonna run again
COME ON! stand, up again
Come on, stand,
Stand, you're gonna run again
Pick up your will
And put on your face
If you need to, just take my hand
It's time to demonstrate, don't hesitate
Just get up and say: Yes, I can
Stand, up again
Come on, stand,
Stand, you're gonna run again
Stand, up again
Come on, stand,
You can make it
Stand, you can make it
Stand, you can take it
Stand, realize that nobody can break it if you
Stand, you can do it
Stand, go right to it
Stand, nobody can do a damn thing to you
But you can't stand, if you don't care
Can't stand, if you don't dare
Can't stand, if you're running scared
Forget you're blood and bone, stand like you're made of stone
Stand, on your honor
Stand, now you're gonna
Stand, they can't put the creeping death upon you
If you stand, never move it
Stand, gotta prove it
Stand, 'cause you can't stand to lose it
Stand stand, stand like a rock
Stand stand, you can stop their clock
Stand stand, put them into shock
Stand stand, you better stand
Stand, stand together
Stand, yeah you better
Stand, don't you know that you can live forever if you
Stand, one for all
Stand, don't you crawl
Stand, if you stand then you deserve it all
But if you can't stand, then they're the boss
Can't stand, it's a total loss
Can't stand, they'll nail you to the cross
Forget you're blood and bone stand like you're made of stone
A bag of years, a cup of tears, lie in a bag
and every line on my face has a tale to tell
for, I have worn this skin I live in and so I will until I'm dying
I've had it good, had it bad, until its over
Stand if you wanna know yourself
stand if your heads with someone else
stand when you feel like making up
stand when you think you've had enough
A set of words, a busy mind lie in a bed
And everyday there is a way I've yet to walk
so many times I took for granted
when love is all I've ever wanted
to come alive, see the sights, stay up late and then its over
Stand if you love the one your with
stand when there's nothing else to give
stand, cos its all you'll ever know
stand, cos there's nowhere left to go
stand if you have something to say
stand when you need a place to stay
stand if you wanna be alone
stand anywhere where you want to
All that I am is all I'll be
When you stand as a woman or a man
Stand anywhere you know you can
stand if you want without a sound
[Verse]
What do you do
when you've done all you can
And it seems like it's never enough?
And what do you say
when your friends turn away,
you're all alone?
Tell me, what do you give
When you've given your all,
and seems like
you can't make it through?
Stand and be sure
Be not entangled in that bondage again
You just stand, and be sure.
God has a purpose.
Yes, God has a plan.
Tell me what do you do
when you've done all you can
And it seems like you can't make it through
Child you just stand
You just stand
Stand
Don't you give up
Through the storm , through the rain
Through the hurt , through the pain
[Chorus]
Well, you just stand
When there's nothing left to do
You just stand
Watch the Lord see you through
Yes, after you've done all you can
You just stand
Don't you bow, don't bend
Don't give up, don't give in
Hold on, just be strong
God will step in and it won't be long
VERSE
Tell me,
how do you handle the guilt of your past?
Tell me, how do you deal with the shame?
And how can you smile
when your heart is broken
and filled with pain?
Tell me what do you give
when you've given your all
Seems like you can't make it through?
After you've done all you can
After you've gone through the hurt
After you've gone through the pain
After you've gone through the storm
After you've gone through the rain
Prayed and cried,you've prayed and cried
Prayed and cried, prayed and cried
After you've done all you can, you just stand.
Child you just stand,
when there's nothing left to do
You just stand
Watch the Lord see you through
Yes, after you've done all you can
You just stand.
Walk in a corner shop
See a shoplifting cop
See the old lady with a gun
See the hero try to run
Nothing's what it seems, I mean
It's not all dirty, but it's not all clean
There's children paying bills
There's monks buying thrills
There's pride for sale in magazines
There's pills for rent to make you clean
Marvin Gaye, there's no brother, brother
Woody Guthrie's land can't feed Mother
Mothers weep, children sleep
So much violence ends in silence
It's a shame there's no one to blame
For all the pain that life brings
If you will just take me It might just complete me
And together we can make a stand
A waitress brings me lunch
We meet but do not touch
On TV, D.C. is selling lies
While in the corner, King's dream dies
Go to the counter, pay for me and my friend
A homeless man pulls out a roll, says it's on him
The mayor has no cash
He said he spent it on hookers and hash
My mommy always tells me to do what's right!
To wash behind my ears and try to be polite!
Because she loves me so!
She tells me what I need to know!
But sometimes when I'm playin' with a friend or two,
They're doin' things I'm not supposed to do!
I don't go along, cause what they do is wrong.
Chorus:
Stand for what you believe in.
God...
He's the one to back you up!
...will stand with you!
Stand Up! Stand Up!
When everybody tells you that you gotta be cool,
Remember what you learned in Sunday School!
Just check it out!
The Bible tells you what it's all about!
If you have a question, go ask your dad.
And he can tell you if a thing is good or bad,
You'll make his day,
If you remember what your parents say!
(VERSE 1)
I'm standing at the edge of space and time
Deciding if my being alive is a crime
And if I jump and sail out into the abyss
How much will I really miss?
I'm inching closer, closer to my fate
Lacking a backup plan or escape
And I'm just about to finally go and move ahead
When a voice calls out to me
Here's what it said:
(CHORUS)
STAND
Every woman and man
This is a call for all to rise up and stand
STAND
Every woman and man
Raise up your voice and say that I can
STAND
Every woman and man
This is a call for all to rise up and
All rise up and say…
I CAN
(VERSE 2)
Get back up on your feet
You’re much to strong to quit on me
Now dry your eyes and brace your back
Prepare for warfare
Here comes the attack
You’re nearly there so don’t you stop
Making your very own way to the top
And when you see your victory
Together we will be
We’re now free
(BRIDGE)
Everybody now…
I'll stand even when life has got me down
And my hopes and dreams are no where to be found
Still I stand cause I know
I'm too close to give up now
I put it all in your hands and just stand
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Stand, even when nights seem cold, and
Stand, when you can't feel your soul, and
Stand, when your dark past won't seem to go away, help me say, you can
Stand, God is right by your side, and
He will make everything all right so, if you can (lift your hands) let's plan and just stand
If I cry, it's all right, cause it may be just what I need
Cause everybody hurts sometimes, and every heart needs relief
Still I know where to go, to the one who understands
So no matter what tomorrow may bring, still I stand
Stand, even when nights seem cold, and
Stand, when you can't feel your soul, and
Stand, when your dark past won't seem to go away, help me say, you can
Stand, God is right by your side, and
He will make everything all right so, if you can (lift your hands) let's plan and just stand
Everybody help me say...
Even if you fall still know that you can just stand, you can just stand...
If you can, lift your hands, let's plan, if you just stand
If you
Stand, even when nights seem cold, and
Stand, when you can't feel your soul, and
Stand, when your dark past won't seem to go away, help me say, you can
Stand, God is right by your side, and
He will make everything all right so, if you can (lift your hands) let's plan and just stand
If you stand...
Help me...
Lord, I know...
If you can, let's plan, stand
I search through my mind
And it's hard trying to find
Words that we haven't said
To tame the thoughts in your head
I can only promise you
That I will see this through
You can count on me, you can cry with me
No one can divide me, you can depend on me
To see this through, I will cover you
I won't lie to you, I will choose to
Stand by you
I will stand by you
Stand by you
By you
When you're feeling weak and
You're close to defeat
You can look in my eyes
To find love, not my pride
You know that it's true
I'll be waiting here for you
Fear can tear the road from underneath you
Nothing's worth my pride and nothing's worth the
It was an ordinary morning
At the school upon the hill
The sun was slowly rising
The flag was standing still
And the students were rushing to face another day
But in the middle of the madness
There was one who made her way
She was standing by the flagpole
But she bowed her head to pray
And she said "I, I will not be afraid"
She said, who will stand, stand together
Heart to heart, reaching out for love
Hand in hand with each other
By God's grace, who will stand?
Now everyone was watching
Staring at the girl
Some of them were laughing
And calling her a fool
And they said, "She, ohh she will stand alone"
But then one by one they stepped out
And one by one they came
Breaking form their silence
With a simple act of faith
And they cried, "We, oh, we are not ashamed, no"
And we will stand, stand together
Heart to heart, reaching out for love
Hand in hand with each other
By God's grace, we will stand
And we will stand up for what we believe
We will stand up for our freedom
And we'll stand up for one nation under God
With liberty and justice for all
We will stand, stand together
Heart to heart, reaching out for love
We will stand, stand together
Heart to heart, reaching out for love
Hand in hand with each other
And by God's grace, we will stand
We will stand, we will stand, together
And by God's grace, we will stand
Heart to heart, hand in hand
We are not ashamed to stand
Heart to heart, hand in hand
We are not ashamed to stand
Heart to heart, hand in hand
I feel I am falling,
from grips of righteousness.
Trapped in sin, there's no way out.
I am weak, the walls keep building.
I feel so helpless, I feel so all alone.
Bound in chains,
the power of sin grow over me.
I try to separate,
but it can't be done.
Darkness surrounds me,
leaving me without help.
I can't get out,
I can't find help.
I'm trapped inside my own iniquities.
I try to separate,
but it can't be done,
without help from above.
Then I realized,
He's been there the whole time.
I'm the one who left,
and turned my back on God.
I'm the one at fault,
I'm the one to blame.
I'm a new creation.
I have been justified,
by the blood of the One,
who hung on the cross.
I will no longer give into my desires.
I will not, I will not fall,
and live on my own.
You'll be there to pick me up,
to pick me up again and again.
I will not fall.
I will not fall.
I will not fall down.
Innocent,
He shed His blood for me.
Saved the world for you and me.
I will stand for Him,

Tragedy
Is cheap and so is talk
Decision
Yours to make what will you do
In the end
It comes back to you
Cause it's a long... way to fall
Thunder
Don't scare me at all
Lightning
Well just a little
Pressure
It ain't worth a dime
And your wounds
They'll all heal in time
Cause it's a long... way to fall
The answers are getting harder
The answers are getting harder
The answers are getting harder
(If an answer comes to those who pray)
The answers are getting harder
(If an answer comes to those who pray)
The answers are getting harder
(If an answer comes to those who pray)
The answers are getting harder and harder
And there ain't no way to bargain or to barter
But if you've got the angst or you got the ardor
You might faint from the fight but you're gonna find it
For every challenge could have paradise behind it
And if you accept what you have lost and you stand tall
You might just get it back and you can get it all
So now you know why it's a long way to fall
Yeah cause it's a long way to fall
Cause it's a long... way to fall

Story of a heart in need
Playin' on my T.V. screen
Will I sit back and watch it fade?
There's gotta be a better way.
Love is more than what you feel
Love is action, love is real
Break your silence, turn the key
And be the change you wanna see.
So get ready, come on everybody
Are you ready to:
Stand, for what you believe in
Stand, for all that is right
Stand, when it's dark all around you
You can be that shining light.
Stand, when troubles come calling
Your gonna be alright
Stand, just reach deep inside you
And be that shining light.
Stand.

So what am I waiting for?
So get ready, come on everybody
Are you ready to:
Stand, for what you believe in

And my hopes and dreams nowhere to be found
Still I Stand cause I know I'm too close to give up now
I'll put it all in your hands and just Stand (yea yea)
Chorus
Stand even when nights seem cold and
Stand when you can't feel your soul and
Stand when your dark past won't seem to go away
(Help me say) You can Stand
God is right by your side and
He will make everything alright
So if you can lift your hands
There's a plan and just Stand
If I cry it's alright
Cause it may be just what I need (hum)
Cause everybody hurts sometimes and
Every heart needs relief
Still I know where to go
To the one who understands
So no matter what tomorrow may bring
Still I Stand
Chorus
Everybody help me say Oh...Stand
Even if you fall still know that you can just Stand
Oh...
If you can lift your hands
There's a plan if you just Stand
If you
Chorus
You feel like a candle in a hurricane
Just like a picture with a broken frame
Alone and helpless, like you've lost your fight
But you'll be alright, you'll be alright
?Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend ?til you break
?Cause it's all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand, then you stand
Life's like a novel with the end ripped out
The edge of a canyon with only one way down
Take what you're given before it's gone
And start holdin' on, keep holdin' on
?Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend ?til you break
?Cause it's all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand, yeah, then you stand
Every time you get up
And get back in the race
One more small piece of you
Starts to fall into place, yeah
?Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend ?til you break
?Cause it's all you can take
Yeah, then you stand
Yeah, baby
Woo hoo, woo hoo
Woo hoo, woo hoo
Stand! In the end you'll still be you
One that's done all the things you set out to do.
Stand! There's a cross for you to bear
Things to go through if you're going anywhere.
(Everybody say):
Stand! For the things you know are right.
It's the truth that the truth makes them so uptight.
Stand! All the things you want are real.
You have you to complete and there is no deal.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah. Oom bah bah bah Oom bah bah bah
Stand! Stand!
Huh! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya
Stand! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya .
Stand! They will try to make you crawl.
And they know what they're saying makes no sense at all.
Stand! Don't you know that you are free?
Well, at least in your mind if you want to be.
(Everybody say):
Huh! Hah! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya.
Huh! Hah! Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya. (etc. to fade)
I wake up to another day
I don't know if I can face
All the fears that are staring me down
Yeah, I'm trying to be brave
But I'm a thread about to fray
I want to stand, but I don't know how
I look U-UP!
and all I see is Your love holding me
When I feel like giving up
When my heart has hurt too much
Feels like i've reached the end
No, I won't turn and run
This battle will be won
When I've done all I can
I stand, stand, stand
I stand, stand, stand
Some days I lose my place
It's a fight to keep my faith
But, You are with me
I am not alone, noooo
When all around my world gives way
Tossed like an ocean wave
You are my rock when the storm clouds blow
I look up
And all I see is Your love holding me
When I feel like giving up
When my heart has hurt too much
Feels like i've reached the end
No, I won't turn and run
This battle will be won
When I've done all I can
I stand, stand, stand
I stand, stand, stand
On Your promise, I will stand
All other ground is sinking sand
On Your promise, I will stand
All other ground is sinking sand
Sinking sand
Is sinking, sinking,
Yea yeah, yeah
When I feel like giving up
When my heart has hurt too much
Feels like i've reached the end
No, I won't turn and run
This battle will be won, yeahhhh
So I'll stand, stand, stand,
I stand, stand, stand
Here I am waiting
For how long I don't know
It's a long way back from where I've been
But there's no where else to go
So I'll stand
With my face to the wind
And my back to the world
I'll follow you
And I'll go where you tell me to go
No I won't be afraid
No I won't be afraid
I feel your wind is moving
I'm not sure where it's going
But I'll let it carry me away
Cause I'm not staying in this place
Where do you stand? What do you see?
What do you hear? What do you believe?
When all falls down, crumbles and bleeds,
Will you stand? Stand by me?
When silence is broken and stones are thrown,
When my windows are shattered, will you give me a home?
When I'm out in the cold, sranded and wore,
Will you stand? Stand my me?
When my light goes dim and I've lost the spark,
Will you help me find my way through the dark?
When my candle goes out and I've lost the flame,
Will you stand? Stand by me?
When I shiver from being cold and wet,
Will you cover me and lay me to rest?
When my body becomes lifeless, frozen and sore?
Will you stand? Stand by me?
When all I own has been taken away,
Will you share with me through these unfortunate days?
When I'm poor, broken, without a thing in this world,
Will you stand? Stand by me?
When my life is fading, fading to black, when it doesn't
Look like I will make it back
When I leave my life will you care for what I have left,
Will you stand? Stand by me?
Where do you stand? What do you see?
What do you hear? What do you believe?
When all falls down, crumbles and bleeds,
Will you stand? Stand by me?
When silence is broken and stones are thrown,
When my windows are shattered, will you give me a home?
When I'm out in the cold, sranded and wore,
We stand by our ways
It is not just a game that we play
Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand
These walls can't keep us in (no matter what has been)
This fight runs under my skin
Our gift to a world in need
A soundtrack for the brand new breed
Never before did you see
Throughout all of history
Such a rebel force, an army
Of little freaks
Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand
These walls can't keep us in (no matter what has been)
This fight runs under my skin
Why have we fallen?
How could we fail always?
Time's up you corporate whores
We reinvented the art of war
Never before did you see
Such an underground victory
Such a rebel force, an army
Of little freaks
Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand
These walls can't keep us in (no matter what has been)
This fight runs under my skin
Why have we fallen?
How could we fail always?
All lies are believable
Even the ones we are never - told
Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand
These walls can't keep us in (no matter what has been)
This fight runs under my skin
Now you have forced our hand
Right here we make our stand
These walls are about to fall
Prepare for the total recall
With visible breath, I'm calling your name
With visible tracks, I'm finding my way
With a sorrowful heart, I honor this pain
And offer these tears to the rain
In a moment of truth at the top of the hill
I open my arms and let go of my will
And stand with my face to the wind
With the storm beating down on this sacred ground
If I stand for the grace that I've known
For what I believe
Then I won't stand alone
No I won't stand alone
There's a new pair of eyes to embrace all I see
A new peace of mind and it comes quietly
There's a joy in my heart that you've given to me
And I offer this soul's melody
So I beat on my chest till my song has been sung
And I cry like a wolf at the top of my lungs
And stand with my face to the wind
With the storm beating down on this sacred ground
If I stand for the grace that I've known
For what I believe
Then I won't stand alone
No I won't stand alone
When the thundering voices of doubt try to shake my faith, oh
I'll be listening from inside out and I won't be afraid to
Stand with my face to the wind
With the storm beating down on this sacred ground
If I stand for the grace that I've known
For what I believe
Then I won't stand alone

Which is the word of God
And praying always in the spirit speaking in tongues

Ending:
I'm walking in an open field looking for some space to fill
I believe there's something left to hold
So even when the sun goes down and there's no one around
I'm standing in the freedom of my soul
And the truth of the matter is still the same
It's that you and I, we will not be here forever
The truth of the matter is still the same
I'm ready to stand
I'm ready to stand
I'm ready to stand
I'm ready to stand
I can see the earth from here, I can see it shake in fear
I can see it falling to its knees
But you know I'm not the same, my burden is a burning flame
I hold it up for all the world to see
I'm walking in an open field, looking for some space to fill
I believe there's something left to hold
And I can see the earth from here, I can see it shake in fear
I'm standing in the freedom of my soul
So even when the sun goes down, and there's no one around
Even when the sun goes down, even when the sun goes down
Even when the sun goes down, even when the sun goes down
In the hallway of Roosevelt High School
Michael and Susan arm and arm
Nobody looked for nothing different
Nobody looked for nothing new
We thought they'd never fade
But time it turns a page
Family business kept him right at home
Her brains took her far away
Made arrangements to meet each other
Holidays Saturdays
He watched her drive away
And time it turned a page
Do we stay together or do we say good-bye
Do we keep the promises we made
when we were young
Do we let time change us,
or does it keep us in
Do we do we do we do we do we do we
Stand
The fear that turned inside her was
will I be left all alone
The fear that turned inside him was
will I be left all alone
And do we stay together
or do we say good-bye
Do we keep the promises we made
when we were young
Do we let time change us,
or does it keep us in
Do we do we do we do we do we do we
Young man
Old man
Don't matter if you're a big man
Strong man
I'm coming after anybody get in my way
I won't have it
Be the first one coming through the barricade
Don't get me all fired up
Time to fly baby
Get yo hands up
Realize that the go is about to gear off
So get tough when your name is called I see you standing tall
If anyone comes to get you
Gonna have to come through us all
We got nothing to lose and we're not giving up

If we don't live it- oh
Then who's gonna live it- oh
Stand for the truth- shawty
We gotta walk it- oh

Stand for the truth, now
[Lecrae]
Get it up, get it in, get it out
Don't sit on it- we know it's hard
Trying to rap for Jesus, believe us
From the block to the hood to the yard
You feel like Noah- huh, you tryin' to hold it down
But when you stop and look around
No one solid to be found
WAIT- don't grow weary man, listen close and hear me man
I know you feel alone, in your zone or your city man
But, all across the globe, Christians are getting it on
Stand for the truth, though it feels like you're standing alone
STAND- Grow in grace and reason
PREACH- In and out of season
CHRIST- Crucified, even if we get martyred like Steven
PRAY- for a faithful crew
RAISE- up a faithful few
Know we in this together, pray for us as we pray for you
LOOK, what you feelin', we feelin' but keep on buildin'
'Cause God is into revealing His glory using His children
Sometimes it's lonely but know that you ain't the only one
Standing up for the truth and anticipating the HOLY One!
[Chorus]
[Flame]
Begin blazing the trail if you can look and see 'em sitting on the job
Consistently dissing the God that done saved us from hell
Be standing examples with answers for seekers seeking salvation
Or sinners who swamped in they sin from circular situations
It's sad- I noticed you're weary- it's clearly a time to reflect
On the cross of the Christ in spite of how many times they reject
You've got fam in Dallas, Texas and fam in St. Louis
And fam that's in Philadelphia standing in this confusion
We brothers in love with the lover who loved us enough to embrace us
The least we can do is just stand in they face and then take it
The face of temptation the face of persecution
So face it we made it- just continue to stand and be suited
Because the Lamb has included
People like us to carry the truth and share in the truth in a land that's
polluted
In extreme measures, take pleasure in what the Father has done
Don't get weary in well doing if you in the Son
[Chorus]
[Da T.R.U.T.H.]
I'm not a quitter, I'm a fighter
I'ma fight since Elijah was taken high up
On a mountain of fire
Man- I'm inspired to stand
I take pride in my camp, Stay quiet— I can't
Pray private and clandestine
My plan is stay biased- the chance
To take I Am and champion His views
Man- it's so beautiful that, I pray, why is it scant
It ain't wisest to plant before plucking the root
Take Jeremiah for example, no punches were pulled
Saints rise up and stand, don't plunge in the pool
A blatant, obvious stance
On state college campuses, make a lot of them tense
So what, you ain't cool, stand firm in the faith
You can't swerve when they shake
You with questions that are hard, to answer in debates
The standard has been raised
Seven thousand ain't bowed to Baal
Man- get your hands up, if you don't follow the crowd
Hey is there something
You've got on your mind
Can you speak
A bit louder
Just wait listen close
To these words and you'll find
It gets harder
To swallow their lies
Stay all they ask
Is you follow them, fools
Yes you've made it
So far so you play
Bring you friends
To our party recruit
It'll take you much further
O this is your way
All your cunning destruction
No we cannot stay
We'll say fuck
You consumption
If I stood for you
And I bled for you
Would you come and save me
If we took a chance
Did it all again
Would you run away or stand
So you prey
On the loneliest cubs
In the zoo
All the weak and unknowing
Just clay you can mold
And conform them the rules
We must break the bad habits
O this is your way
All your cunning destruction
No we cannot stay
We'll save fuck
You consumption
If I stood for you
And I bled
For you would you come
And save me
If we took a chance
Did it all again
Would you run away or stand
If I stood for you
And I bled for you
Would you come and save me
If we took a chance
Did it all again
