The Stand
By: Joel Houston
Key: E
Verse 1:
E                           A
You stood before creation, eternity in Your hand
E/G#                     C#m                    A
You spoke the earth into motion, my soul now to stand


Verse 2:
E                                A
You stood before my failure, and carried the cross for my shame
   E/G#                  C#m                       A
My sin weighed upon Your shoulders, my soul now to stand


Pre-Chorus 1:
              A    F#m                       C#m
So what can I say           and what could I do
               A             B                  C#m
But offer this heart Oh God       completely to You


Verse 3:
   E                              A
So I'll walk upon salvation, Your Spirit alive in me
     E/G#                 C#m                     A
This life to declare Your promise, my soul now to stand


Pre-Chorus 2:
              A    F#m                       C#m   E
So what can I say           and what could I do
               F#m7           B              A         E B C#m
But offer this heart Oh God       completely    to You


Bridge:
A            E           B             C#m
So I'll stand, with arms high and heart abandoned
A       E          B       C#m
In awe of the One who gave it all
A         E         B            C#m
I'll stand, my soul Lord to You surrendered
A     E     B     C#m
All I am is Yours
