This song was born through the intense struggle we had with our son and substance abuse
Lyrics
Stand!
I've been tossed on the waves of doubt and confusion
Struggling for something to hold
For an anchor of hope that I could cling to
As I felt my hearing growing cold
But there in the darkness I heard His voice
Sayiing, "Stand up my Child! Look up, and rejoice!"
He said:
Stand, when your heart is aching
Stand, though your soul is shaking
For I am Your God, and I am strong and able
Stand when this life confounds you
Stand when Hell itself surrounds you
And you feel like you've reached your end
Put on my armour again
And Stand!
On this road that we travel we're sure to know sorrow
And some things will never be clear
But His grace is sufficient for every trial
For every heartache here
So child, don't grow weary-the battle's been won
Lift up your eyes your redemption has come!
Tag
There is no power on earth or below
That can separate us from the one who loves us so!
And Stand.....etc.
