4Him - Couldn't We Stand lyrics

rate me

Everyday<br />

You hear the people talkin'<br />

They say they're takin a stand<br />

They're lookin' for<br />

A cause they can believe in<br />

For the welfare of man<br />

But all I see are soldiers in a circle<br />

Marching no place fast<br />

Isn't it time the children of God<br />

Take a stand that will last<br />

Oh it makes me want to ask<br />

<br />

(chorus)<br />

Couldn't we stand to kneel a little longer<br />

The time is never spent in vain<br />

In the light of all we stand to gain<br />

Finding the faith that only makes us stronger<br />

Touching what we cannot see<br />

Reaching to heaven from our knees<br />

Couldn't we stand<br />

<br />

I know men<br />

So blinded by ambition<br />

The joy is slippin' away<br />

But they're no worse<br />

Than the people who are livin'<br />

Like there's only today<br />

And I can't help but shake my head and wonder<br />

What's it comin' to<br />

Lord, give me the strength to lift them in prayer<br />

'Cause it's all I can do<br />

Just to give them back to you<br />

<br />

(chorus)
