"Terra Firma (Stand)"

Defend Your Joy

The fall you took was from inside And your heart is pushing the flowers up From where your feelings died And you look and you see the sand You see the wind is blowing From where you are to where you used to Stand You used to stand Stand You used to stand The thunder rolls and comes crashing in And the lightning shows you where you are Remembering where you've been You feel the blood falling from your hands You try to find the strength That picks you up to find your place to Stand Your place to stand (When you fall it's the fear) Your place to stand Your place to stand (When you fall it's the fear) Your place to stand (When you fall it's the fear) Your place to stand (When you fall it's the fear) The fear of the ground is holding you down A scream with no sound Your parallel rise and fall Your life is hanging from a strand You're falling away The end of your day Your reason to stay condemned by the words you say An extended nail-pierced hand Can find your place to Stand Your place to stand (When you fall it's the fear) Your place to stand Your place to stand (When you fall it's the fear) The fall you took has been pushed aside And your heart is pushing the praises up To the One who died Get up! Get up! When you fall it's the fear... The fear of the ground is holding you down (When you fall it's the fear) The fear of the ground is holding you in the sand (When you fall it's the fear) So find your place to stand (The fear of the ground is holding you down) Your place to stand (The fear of the ground is holding you down) (When you fall it's the fear) Your place to stand (The fear of the ground is holding you down) Your place to stand (The fear of the ground is holding you down) (When you fall it's the fear) Your place to stand
