Stand Like a Man

Stand Like a Man Verse 1 I wake before the sunrise, Put my boots upon the ground. A man's not measured by his words, But by the weight he carries around. The world keeps throwing punches, Trying hard to bend my will. But I've learned through every battle, A faithful man stands still. Pre-Chorus Though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil there. The Lord is my shepherd, And I know He's always near. Chorus So I stand like a man, With my Bible in my hand. Fighting for my family, Doing all I can. As for me and my house, We'll serve the Lord above. Built on faith and sacrifice, Built on strength and love. I won't back down, I won't run. A good fight's worth fighting Until my race is done. Verse 2 My children watch my footsteps, Every choice, every scar. So I pray I lead with wisdom, No matter where we are. The road is never easy, The storms will surely come. But a house built on the rock Will never come undone. Chorus So I stand like a man, With my Bible in my hand. Fighting for my family, Doing all I can. As for me and my house, We'll serve the Lord above. Built on faith and sacrifice, Built on strength and love. Epic Instrumental Bridge Thunder rolls Electric guitar solo rises Banjo and slide guitar harmonies Big Southern Rock drums Choir vocals: "Hold the line... Hold the line..." Final Chorus So I stand like a man, Firm upon the rock. The wind may shake the mountains, But faith can never stop. I've fought the good fight, I've kept the faith inside. And when my final day comes, I'll leave no regret behind. My family is my kingdom, My purpose and my pride. And I'll give my very life To keep them by my side. Outro Be strong and be courageous, Never be afraid. The Lord goes before you, Every step you've made.
