Stand
It's Time
It's Time to rise above your past.
It's time to make your stand.
Be bold it's time for standing fast...
As God's voice and His right hand!
No longer in defeat to hide...
But rising up in victory.
By His Spirit that lives inside...
Have that faith that all can see.
Be the one who DOES obey.
Who no longer hides in fear!
For Jesus came and showed the way.
So now keep Him always near!
Defeated once... you now stand firm.
Against evil with God's light.
From all sin forever turn...
And against injustice fight!
No longer only as a man lukewarm.
But as purified now by fire.
Sent to boldly lost souls warn...
And discouraged souls inspire!
The gospel is what changes men.
The cross brought victory.
Be no longer as once you've been.
For your faith has made you free!
The time is now... His coming near.
Jesus has overcome!
This world desperate needs to hear...
That the Father has sent His Son!
For on the cross He conquered sin...
When He shed His blood in love!
And soon He shall return again.
In victory from above!
So be the man that takes thar stand!
Who shall not turn away.
Be a voice of reason... His right hand...
Be the first to say... "let's pray!"
For now it's time to for standing firm!
By His Spirit who lives in you!
To do His will and of Him learn...
As He commands... now faithfull DO!
Give Him glory, tell His story...
Show that ove in all you do.
And gratefull for all You've done for me...
My life now... belongs... to You!
