Stand Poem by Jeffrey Stultz

When your faith is tired
And you're feelin' old
Livin in a land
That's not hot or cold
Listen for the voice
That softly calls to you
Trust in Me my child
And I'll see you through.

To him who has an ear
Let him hear what the
Spirit of God has to say,
Temptations all around,
Pressin down and you
Feel like you can't get away.
You want to overcome
But you've come undone
And your life is fallin apart.
There's a battle with sin
Thats ragin' within
It's all just a matter of heart.


Chorus:
Take your stand in Jesus
He's the one who came and freed us
When you've done everything you can do
Stand fast in the Grace He gives you.
To live in victory
To see and be all That Jesus wants us to be
We gotta sacrifice, Pay the price with the time we spend down on our knees.

Chorus 2:

When the pressure is gettin to you
The Spirit of God will come through
In the middle of tribulation
He will fill you with jubilation.

Repeat First Chorus

Come and buy of Me
Gold tried in the fire
Let my righteousness
Be your one desire
Let my spirit be
A guiding light to you
So stand fast in Me
For I am coming soon.
Chorus:
Take your stand in Jesus
He's the one who came and freed us
When you've done everything you can do
Stand fast in the Grace He gives you

To live in victory
To see and be all
That Jesus wants us to be we gotta sacrifice
Pay the price with the
Time we spend down on our knees,

Chorus 2:

When the pressure is gettin to you
The Spirit of God will come through
In the middle of tribulation
He will fill you with jubilation

Repeat First Chorus

Come and buy of Me
Gold tried in the fire
Let my righteousness
Be your one desire
Let my spirit be A guiding light to you
So stand fast in Me
For I am coming soon.
