Stand and Deliver

It's the longest night of the darkest year The one you learned that life can go and disappear And a holy light, you said God ain't here 'Cause, how could he explain the kind of pain you feel? Said I just wanna hold you I don't really know if I can fix this, dear Hate to see you hurting No, you're not a burden I volunteer Won't drown in the river, I'll swim out to you I'll stand and deliver, I'll carry you through If you lose all the meaning of life, love, and truth I'll stand and deliver, I'll show up for you What comes to pass, don't come to stay We hate these ones we have, are dead by day As long as we are living, the desert is our life We'll hold onto each other in the darkness and the light Won't drown in the river, I'll swim out to you I'll stand and deliver, I'll carry you through If you lose all the meaning of life, love, and truth I'll stand and deliver, I'll show up for you I'll stand, stand and deliver, yeah I'll stand, stand and deliver I'll stand, stand and deliver I'll stand, stand and deliver Even though you've been low Well, darling You got someone, keep your head up high Won't drown in the river, I'll swim out to you I'll stand and deliver, I'll carry you through If you lose all the meaning of life, love and truth I'll stand and deliver, I'll show up for you I'll stand, stand and deliver I'll stand, stand and deliver I'll stand, I'll stand and deliver I'll stand, stand and deliver
