Lyrics
I Stand For You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
No greater power
No greater gift to lose
Then the message unspoken
The silence of the truth
Alone we hide in the shadows
But together we bring on the light
[Chorus:]
One voice is not strong enough
One heart just won't do
In this world I don't count for much
Unless I stand for you
Oh, we are the beginning
Of a sound that might be heard
To the many who lie waiting
Our words break through the cold grip of silence
And they guide us through the night
[Chorus]
One choice is all we got
One fact remains true
In this world I don't count for much
Unless I stand for you
Not another minute
Not another hour
We're gonna rise on up
Every man, woman and child
(I believe that the time has come)
Oh, I stand for you
Alone we hide in the shadows
But together we bring on the light
