Song Lyrics

"Stand Up"

by Petra
Album: Petra Means Rock

The battle cry is getting louder,
The countdown's close to the final hour,
The enemy is on every side, but still no match for the crucified,
Victory unto victory,
We are soldiers in his army.

Stand up, take a stand for Jesus,
Stand up so the whole world sees us,
Showing the way to a world gone astray,
Shining our light with all of our might,
Stand up, take a stand for Jesus,
Stand up, so the whole world sees us,
Following him, and serving him,
Fighting the fight that we know we will win.

Out of our pews and into the streets,
Making some use of our beautiful feet,
Redeeming the time, for the days are evil,
This whole world's in such upheaval,
We wrestle not with flesh and blood,
But when the enemy comes in like a flood...

Stand up, take a stand for Jesus,
Stand up so the whole world sees us,
Showing the way to a world gone astray,
Shining our light with all of our might,
Stand up, take a stand for Jesus,
Stand up, so the whole world sees us,
Following him, and serving him,
Fighting the fight that we know we will win.

Gotta lay our lives down, and stand up for the truth we've found,
Gotta let the redeemed of the Lord say so.

Stand up, take a stand for Jesus,
Stand up so the whole world sees us,
Showing the way to a world gone astray,
Shining our light with all of our might,
Stand up, take a stand for Jesus,
Stand up, so the whole world sees us,
Following him, serving him,
Fighting the fight that we know we will win, yeah.
