It was an ordinary morning
|
At the school upon the hill
|
The sun was slowly rising
|
The flag was standing still
|
And the students were rushing
|
To face another day
|
|
But in the middle of the madness
|
There was one who made her way
|
She was standing by the flagpole
|
She bowed her head to pray
|
She said "I, I will not be afraid."
|
|
Chorus
|
She said who will stand, stand together
|
Heart to heart reaching out for love
|
Hand in hand with each other
|
By God's grace, who will stand?
|
|
Now everyone was watching
|
Staring at the girl
|
Some of them were laughing
|
And calling her a fool
|
And they said "She, ohh she will stand alone"
|
|
But then one by one they stepped out
|
One by one they came
|
Breaking form their silence
|
With a simple act of faith
|
They cried "We, no we are not ashamed"
|
|
Chorus
|
We will stand, stand together
|
Heart to heart reaching out for love
|
Hand in hand with each other
|
By God's grace, we will stand
|
|
Bridge
|
And we will stand up for what we believe
|
And we will stand up for our freedom
|
we will stand up for one nation under God
|
With liberty and justice for all!
|
|
Chorus
