The Stand

I have a lot of stuff going on today between Merge Night and Heart Invaders Lesson prep but I wanted to share with you the lyrics of a song we have been doing at Merge the past two weeks that is quickly becoming one of my favorite songs. If you haven't heard it I recommend you buy it on ITUNES. If you don't know what I am talking about when I say ITUNES, I think you need to crawl out from under the rock you are living under

The song is entitled, "The Stand" it is on the Hillsong United "United We Stand" album:

You stood before creation
Eternity in Your hands
You spoke the earth into motion
My soul not to stand

You stood before my failure
And carried the cross for my shame
My sin weighed upon Your shoulders
My soul now to stand

So I'll walk upon salvation
Your Spirit alive in me
This life to declare Your promise
My soul now to stand

So what can I say?
And what could I do?
But offer this heart, Oh God
Completely to You

I'll stand
With arms his and heart abandoned
In awe of the one who gave it all
I'll stand
My soul Lord to You surrendered
All I am is Yours

Heart and Soul,
BAG
