Who Will Stand For Me

                                               WHO WILL STAND FOR ME

Is there anybody left who will stand up for me, in this God blessed country you call land of the free

Just as it was so long ago when I walked among men I'm still just as willing to forgive your every sin

But I have to tell you it's worse now than before yet I still stand outside your heart & knock gently at your door

Of course I will not force myself to make my home in you but if you will give me a chance you'll see my word is true

I'm not trying to guilt you or make anybody mad but you've given in the worldly ways and it really makes me sad

You took me out of public schools and if that weren't bad enough

You've run me out of government and complain when things are tough

I was not created to be played with like a toy.  I was born to show the world in me there is true joy

There's not much I can say or do to make you understand, but what would happen to this world if I removed my hand

Yes you have technology with sattelite and phones but when I come get my children they will not reach my throne

My father knows there will be those I'll have to turn away.  When you stand before my father what words will I say

Will I then be able to confidently reply "Father this one is my child; for their soul I died.  They were not ashamed of me now all I have is theirs.

These are those who stood by me they are my true joint heirs!
