I Stood, Tall

I had nothing but faith beside me through it all knowing I came down again to walk on the face of the earth Water began pouring and pouring from the sky I knew I had to head for cover from the passing storms I stood tall, eventhough it was pouring rain While others fell beneath the rocks of fire I saw the ocean began to rise and the roaring sea waves clash on to the land I stood tall, as I heard thunder began to roar and all the creatures shook with fear I knew I had to bring light as the clouds in the sky grew dark I came down as the ground was shaking Knowing I came down to walk on the face of the earth When the nails, began piecing my hands the arms were stretched out on both sides and feet interlocked together on the cross I had nothing but faith beside me through it all knowing I came down again to walk on the face of the earth
