A Place To Stand

Gotta a lot of things working against me
But I know I can’t lose
Gotta a lot of things working against me
But I know I can’t lose
There’s still a lot of miles between me and my home
But I’ve learned a lot through the years
And now I’m more than just young
Gotta a lot of things working against me
But I know I can’t lose
Gotta a lot of love locked up inside of me
I’m learning to give
Gotta a lot of love locked up inside of me
I’m learning to give
So like that bush in Sinai
That burned but was not consumed
May the speed of my life throw sparks
On the shadows of the tombs
There’s a lot of love locked up inside me
I’m learning to give
So hold on to my hand, hold on to my hand
I need a place to run to and a place to stand
There’s a lot of things this world has hidden
I’m learning to see
There’s a lot of things this world has hidden
I’m learning to see for the first time
Well, I have seen a lot injustice
I’ve seen sweet mercy too
I was blinded by the things I saw
Until I looked at you
There’s a lot of things this world has hidden
I’m beginning to see
So hold on to my hand, hold on to my hand
'Cause I need a place to run to and a place to stand
So hold on to my hand, hold on to my hand
I need a place to run to
So hold on to my hand, hold on to my hand
I need a place to run to and a place to stand
