Stand (In the Light)

Stand - James Ingram

In a time when the words of the truth are not spoken

There's a war...There is hatred tearing us apart

And the sea reaches high to horizons now broken

And the world is so weary and fighting and lost

You must GO Go on and

STAND IN THE LIGHT

You will hear your soul singing

STAND IN THE LIGHT

Close your eyes and youll see all that goodness can be

Its LOVE real LOVE

It doesnt matter what they say

The sun rise again today

You must hurry and stand

In a time when the seasons of life are so shaken

And the pain of the world just keeps spinning around

And the eyes of a child speak of danger awakened

There is a hunger inside its beginning to push hope aside

You have got to

STAND IN THE LIGHT

Feel your heart beat so clearly

STAND IN THE LIGHT

Where you know that the voices will hold you so tight

All through the night

You can send your fears away

Faith and Hope are here to stay

When you STAND IN THE LIGHT

We all ask the questions

What, Where, When, and Why

You must believe inside your heart

The answers lie

Why, dont you

Reach for the hands of a mother whos fallen?

Will you carry the load of your brother whos bound?

If you give of yourself youll know joy and not sorrow

And the world will remember why LOVE is the way we must go

Come on and

STAND IN THE LIGHT

You will hear your soul singing

STAND IN THE LIGHT

Close your eyes he will touch you and hold you so tight

And make you right

It doesnt matter what youve done

Go to the Father and the Son

You must hurry and stand
