When the night
|
Seems to say
|
All hope is lost
|
Gone away
|
But I know
|
I'm not alone
|
By the light
|
She stands
|
|
There she waves
|
Faithful friend
|
Shimmering stars
|
Westward wind
|
Show the way
|
Carry me
|
To the place
|
She stands
|
|
Just when you think it might be over
|
Just when you think the fight is gone
|
Someone will risk his life to raise her
|
There she stands
|
|
There she flies
|
Clear blue skies
|
Reminds us with red
|
Of those that died
|
Washed in white
|
By the brave
|
In their strength
|
She stands
|
|
When evil calls itself a martyr
|
When all your hopes come crashing down
|
Someone will pull her from the rubble
|
There she stands
|
|
We've seen her flying torn and tattered
|
We've seen her stand the test of time
|
And through it all the fools have fallen
|
There she stands
|
|
By the dawn's
|
Early light
|
And through the fight
|
She stands
|
|

There She Stands
