Petra - Stand Up lyrics

Words and music by Bob Hartman

The Battle cry's getting louder

The countdown's close to the final hour

The enemy is on every side

Still no match for the Crucified

Victory unto victory

We are soldiers in His army

(Chorus)

Stand up, take a stand for Jesus

Stand up, so the whole world sees us

Showing the way to a world gone astray

Shing 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

Gotta lay our lives down

And stand up for the truth we've found

Gotta let the redeemed of the Lord say so
