Living for Jesus is the way I will go
I'll follow Him always, don't care what men say
I've been on both sides and I know where I'll stay
The light He has shown me will not fade away
[Chorus]
Stand up, stand up, stand up for Jesus
Oh can't you hear me, He's the way
Stand up, stand up, stand up for Jesus
Oh can't you hear me, He's the way
Where are you standing if you were to fall
Religion won't help you if He calls on you now
Stand up and be counted say I'm for the Lord
Don't keep so quiet, go forth and be bold
[Chorus]
