Lyrics
Everyday you hear the people talking
They say they're taking a stand
They're looking for a cause they can believe in
For the welfare of man
But all I see are soldiers in a circle
Marching no place fast
Isn't it time the children of God
Take a stand that will last
Oh, it makes me want to ask
Couldn't we stand
To kneel a little longer
The time is never spent in vain
In the light of all we stand to gain
Finding the faith that only makes us stronger
Touching what we cannot see
Reaching to heaven from our knees
Oh, couldn't we stand
I know men so blinded by ambition
Their joy is slipping away
But they're no worse
Than the people who are living like there's only today
And I can't help but shake my head and wonder
What's it coming to
Lord, give me the strength to lift them in prayer
'Cause it's all that I can do
Just to give them back to you
Couldn't we stand
To kneel a little longer
The time is never spent in vain
In the light of all we stand to gain
Finding the faith that only makes us stronger
Touching what we cannot see
Reaching to heaven from our knees
Oh, couldn't we stand
Finding the faith that only makes us stronger
Touching what we cannot see
Reaching to heaven from our knees
Couldn't we stand
To kneel a little longer
The time is never spent in vain
In the light of all we stand to gain
Finding the faith that only makes us stronger
Touching what we cannot see
Reaching to heaven from our knees
Couldn't we stand
To kneel a little longer
The time is never spent in vain
In the light of all we stand to gain
