Time To Stand

They told me all the things to do
So I could lead a life like them
Now it’s my choice to sink below
The water’s edge or swim
The water’s edge or swim
To crawl and then to walk
Is how the maker lays our path
Before we realize our time
We’re running from our past
Running from our past
I lay here and surrender
Fear to understand
Silently the night will pass
Illuminate our plan
Illuminate our plan
So listen with your gleaming ears
All who walk our broken land
You’ve crawled, you’ve walked
You’ve run away
But now it’s time to stand
Now it’s time to stand
