In a time when the words of the truth are not spoken   There's a war...There is hatred tearing us apart   And the sea reaches high to horizons now broken   And the world is so weary and fighting and lost   You must GO...Go on and      STAND IN THE LIGHT   You will hear your soul singing   STAND IN THE LIGHT   Close your eyes and you’ll see all that goodness can be      It’s LOVE real LOVE   It doesn’t matter what they say   The sun rise again today   You must hurry and stand      In a time when the seasons of life are so shaken   And the pain of the world just keeps spinning around   And the eyes of a child speak of danger awakened   There is a hunger inside it’s beginning to push hope aside      You’ve got to   STAND IN THE LIGHT   Feel your heart beat so clearly   STAND IN THE LIGHT   Where you know that the voices will hold you so tight   All through the night   You can send your fears away   Faith and Hope are here to stay   When you STAND IN THE LIGHT   We all ask the questions   What, Where, When, and Why   You must believe inside your heart   The answers lie   Why, don’t you   Reach for the hands of a mother who’s fallen?   Will you carry the load of your brother who’s bound?   If you give of yourself you’ll know joy and not sorrow   And the world will remember why LOVE is the way we must go   Come on and       STAND IN THE LIGHT   You will hear your soul singing   STAND IN THE LIGHT   You will hear your soul singing   STAND IN THE LIGHT   Close your eyes he will touch you and hold you so tight   And make you right   It doesn’t matter what you’ve done   Go to the Father and the Son   You must hurry and stand
