I Stand For You

No greater power, no greater gift to lose Then the message unspoken, the silence of the truth Alone we hide in the shadows But together we bring on the light One voice is not strong enough One heart just won't do In this world, I don't count for much Unless I stand for you Oh, we are the beginning of a sound that might be heard To the many who lie waiting Our words break through the cold grip of silence And they guide us through the night One voice is not strong enough One heart just won't do In this world, I don't count for much Unless I stand for you One choice is all we got One fact remains true In this world, I don't count for much Unless I stand for you Not another minute, not another hour We're gonna rise on up every man, woman and child (I believe that the time has come) Oh, I stand for you, alone we hide in the shadows But together we bring on the light
