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
