Stand Firm

Stand firm against the assault of the world

Stand firm when the accusers arrows are hurled

Put on the Truth and the righteous breastplate

Stand firm in the presence of glorious grace

When the sands of the culture are shifting, stand firm

When you’re swayed by the burden you’re lifting, Stand firm

When  Life goes astray from the ways that you planned

When the oceans of doubt encompass the land

When you’re sure that you’ll fail under all the demands Stand firm

This is a Rock that is secure

This is the solid Rock that endures

This is a Rock where your can plant your feet

Where your footsteps are firm and you’ll never retreat 

With your roots in the rock you can always be sure… stand firm!

A Rock of Refuge in the deluge

That offends the worldly-wise

An everlasting solid place

Where there’s no compromise

When the people on which you depend bail, stand firm

When the strategies constructed by men fail, stand firm

For there is a Rock that is higher than you

A  sure place to stand that is steadfast and true

Here you will persist in all that you do, stand firm.

Stand firm, stand firm, stand firm, stand firm
