Stand

Heard something on the radio that made my skin go cold
I felt fear rise for those younger ones I know
Really got me thinking bout' my life
Would I give it all, would I even sacrifice my very breath
For the ones next in line?
Only got this one life to live
Will I spend it on myself, or will I defend

The younger ones, the ones coming after
Will this torch burn out or burn brighter
Will I pass it on or keep it to myself
If I let my courage die and I cower
Then who will fight for the ones coming after
Will eagles soar above the freest land
Will our little ones hold freedom in their hands
If I don't stand?
If I don't stand

Many say that hope is lost
But they just haven't looked deep enough to see
The remnant rising up
Only got this one life to live
Will we spend it on ourselves, or will we defend

The younger ones, the ones coming after
Will this torch burn out or burn brighter
Will we pass it on or keep it to ourselves
If we let our courage die and we cower
Then who will fight for the ones coming after
Will eagles soar above the freest land
Will our little ones hold freedom in their hands
If we don't stand?
If we don't stand

Hear your name being called
Saying stand up for the cause
The time is here to join the remnant rising up
There's a remnant rising up
We're the remnant rising up

For the younger ones, the ones coming after
This torch won't burn out, but burn brighter
We'll pass it on, not keep it to ourselves
We won't let our courage die and cower
We will fight for the ones coming after
Eagles soar above the freest land
Our little ones hold freedom in their hands
Cause' we will stand
We will stand
We will stand
Stand
We will stand
