I'M Standing Strong

The past my call to me
Distraction try to bind me
But your love will always 
    define me.
I'm standing strong
I'm standing strong

Trouble tries to pull me away
To distract the path and the journey
    I take.
I've been down that road too many times
I won't go back for fear of losing my mind.
I won't go back to living a lie
I've changed, I've changed, now it's my time
    to fly.
I'm standing strong
I'm standing strong

It's time to show the world
We have the right stuff
Love of the Father is more than enough.
I'm standing strong
I'm standing strong

It won't be long now, it won't be long
Before you know it we'll be going home
Standing strong, standing strong
I'm still standing strong, until  the day
    He calls me home
