Stand and Die
Steadfast Stephen saw his chance to open wide
Unveiling lies, delivering his skin and bones
Upon the hate filled battle cries
They rushed him and they stoned him
But his sights were set on the open skies
I'm in the wake of martyrs gone before me
Waiting to be tried
Is the strength and trust I have in You
Enough that I would stand and die?
Stand and die
Caught in Cassie was a candle
Burning from the wick of life
She had found it when she finally turned to You
That graceful night
When they asked her if she knew you
What else could she reply?
I'm in the wake of martyrs gone before me
Waiting to be tried
Is the strength and trust I have in You
Enough that I would stand and die?
Stand and die
Now it's nearly twenty hundred years
Since You were crucified
With my heart and soul and all You gave me
I would give my life
I'm in the wake of martyrs gone before me
Waiting to be tried
Is the strength and trust I have in You
Enough that I would stand and die?
Stand and die
Unveiling lies, delivering his skin and bones
Upon the hate filled battle cries
They rushed him and they stoned him
But his sights were set on the open skies
I'm in the wake of martyrs gone before me
Waiting to be tried
Is the strength and trust I have in You
Enough that I would stand and die?
Stand and die
Caught in Cassie was a candle
Burning from the wick of life
She had found it when she finally turned to You
That graceful night
When they asked her if she knew you
What else could she reply?
I'm in the wake of martyrs gone before me
Waiting to be tried
Is the strength and trust I have in You
Enough that I would stand and die?
Stand and die
Now it's nearly twenty hundred years
Since You were crucified
With my heart and soul and all You gave me
I would give my life
I'm in the wake of martyrs gone before me
Waiting to be tried
Is the strength and trust I have in You
Enough that I would stand and die?
Stand and die
