Standing
William McDowell's song "Standing" is a powerful declaration of faith and trust in God's promises. The lyrics encourage believers to step out in faith, like Peter walking on water, and to stand firm on every promise God has made. The song emphasizes that through belief, the supernatural becomes possible, and chains are broken. It speaks of facing darkness with confidence, using the keys of the kingdom to declare freedom. The repeated chorus reinforces the idea of being stronger than ever because we are standing on God's promises, ultimately pointing to Christ as our Savior.
[Verse 1:]
Can you hear the voice of the Father
Inviting you to walk the water?
Risk it all, answer the call, and enter in.
Now we stand on every promise
We're not afraid, our faith goes before us
When we believe, we're gonna see
The supernatural
[Chorus:]
We're gonna see what we're praying for
We believe every single word
Stronger than we've ever been,
Standing on his promises,
We're gonna see the impossible
We release the supernatural
Stronger than we've ever been,
We are standing on his promises
[Verse 2:]
We will face the darkness around us
As we break the chains that have bound us
Oh, yes, it's true, we can do the impossible
So we stand with keys of the kingdom
To declare the day of our freedom
When we believe, we're gonna see
The supernatural.
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
We are stand--ing... stand---ing...
Standing on the promise of Christ our Savior...
We are stand--ing... stand---ing...
Standing on the promise of Christ our Savior...
[Chorus]
[Ending:]
Stronger than we've ever been,
We are standing on his promises
