STAND

What do you do when you've done all you can

And it seems like it's never enough?

And what do you say

When your friends turn away

And you're all alone, alone?

 

Tell me, what do you give when you've given your all

And it seems like you can't make it through?

Well, you just stand when  there's nothing  left to do

You just stand, watch the Lord see you through

Yes, after you've done all you can

You just stand

 

Tell me, how do you handle the guilt of your past?

Tell me, how do you deal with the shame?

And how can you smile while your heart has been broken

And filled with pain, filled with pain?

 

Tell me what do you give when you've given your all?

Seems like you can't make it through

Child, you just stand when there's nothing left to do

You just stand, watch the Lord see you through

Yes, after you've done all you can
You just stand

 

Stand and be sure

Be not entangled in that bondage again

You just stand and endure
God has a purpose

Yes, god has a plan

 

Tell me what do you do when you've done all you can

And it seems like you can't make it through?

Child, you just stand, you just stand, stand

 

Don't you dare give up through the storm

Stand through the rain

Through the hurt

Yeah, through the pain

Don't you bow, and don't you bend

Don't give up, no, don't give in

Hold on

Just be strong

God will step in

And it won't be long

 

After you've done all you can, after you've done all you can

After you've gone through the hurt

After you've gone through the pain

After you've gone through the storm

After you've gone through the rain

Prayed and cried

Prayed and cried

Prayed and cried

Prayed and cried, oh my

 

After you've done all you can

you just stand
