lyrics

stand with you

verse 1:
sometimes my words feel empty, even if they’re true
coming from a heart that’s tryin’ hard to understand
i stand with you
i still wanna reach out even if my words are few
these words could never fill the hole that burns inside your heart
so i’ll just stand with you

pre-chorus 1a:
while they squabble over reasons and preventions
i don’t claim to have the answers but i do know this - i do know this
i stand with you.

verse 2:
may the Good Lord bring you comfort
the kind that only He can give
as He wraps His arms around you - i wish that i could too
but please know i stand with you

pre-chorus 1b:
while you wrestle over reasons and preventions
i don’t claim to have the answers but i do know this - i do know this
i stand with you.

pre-chorus 2:
in the quiet of your heart i hope you hear it
the gentle whisper of the One who calls you nearer, and through it all
i hope you know i stand with you.

chorus?
when your heart breaks then my heart breaks
when just breathing makes your soul ache
when your whole world falls to pieces i’ll stand with you
in the heartache, in the sadness, in the chaos, in the madness
in the senseless and the evil and the hopeless
i stand with you

tag:
in the middle of the darkness – in the middle of the pain
i stand with you

end
for the ones never forgotten
this song remembers you
to the ones here left behind keeping the memories alive
we stand with you
