Stand Up

I know how dark it was at times You sold your soul for just a dime Your heart was ripped to shreds Life left you all but dead But there's a light in that soul of yours So reach inside And reach down deep With Him, you will survive So get up Stand up And rise! Lift your hands up To the sky So get up Stand up And rise! Get up, stand up STAND UP AND RISE! Indelible mark on your soul In the eye of whom beholds Once just a heap of trash Now a diamond from the ash Streams of life in that heart of yours So reach inside Take hold, hold tight With Him, you will survive Survive So get up Stand up And rise! Lift your hands up To the sky So get up Stand up And rise! Get up, stand up STAND UP AND RISE! Look, I know some have let you down Some always will So hard to choose the high roads Discerning, be still I hear you In the silence you hear The truth So get up Stand up And rise! Lift your hands up To the sky Everybody get up Stand up And rise! Get up, stand up Get up, stand up Get up Stand up And rise! Lift your hands up To the sky Everybody get up Stand up And rise! Now get up, stand up STAND UP AND RISE!
