Stand!

Hello everyone,

How are you doing on this day? I hope well and bubbling in the Lord. We thank God for He is indeed our strength. And we stay strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.

There is a song by Donnie McClurkin called “Stand. “ The lyrics go –

“What do you do when you’ve done all you can, And it seems like it’s never enough? And what do you say, when your friends turn away, you’re all alone? Tell me, what do you give, when you’ve given your all, and seems like you can’t make it through?
Stand and be sure, Be not entangled in that bondage again. You just stand and be sure. God has a purpose. Yes, God has a plan.
Tell me what do you do when you’ve done all you can, And it seems like you can’t make it through, Child you just stand, you just stand. Stand. Don’t you give up. Through the storm, through the rain, through the hurt, through the pain.
Well, you just stand, when there’s nothing left to do, You just stand. Watch the Lord see you through. Yes, after you’ve done all you can, You just stand.
Don’t you bow, don’t bend. Don’t give up, don’t give in. Hold on, just be strong. God will step in and it won’t be long.
Tell me, how do you handle the guilt of your past? Tell me, how do you deal with the shame?
And how can you smile when your heart is broken and filled with pain? Tell me what do you give, when you’ve given your all, seems like you can’t make it through?
After you’ve done all you can; After you’ve gone through the hurt; After you’ve gone through the pain; After you’ve gone through the storm; After you’ve gone through the rain; Prayed and cried, you’ve prayed and cried; Prayed and cried, prayed and cried , After you’ve done all you can, you just stand.
Child you just stand, when there’s nothing left to do. You just stand. Watch the Lord see you through, Yes, after you’ve done all you can, You just stand.” http://www.lyriczz.com/lyrics/donnie-mcclurkin/13215-stand/
