Courage To Stand
by Elizabeth Deveau

Album: Living Waters

When I speak with God my Father
We're never closer than when I'm on my knees in prayer.
In the stillness of that precious moment,
In the quiet, I feel his presence there.
He is to me, hope and courage to endure.
He rescues me when I've drifted too far from shore.
When all seems lost and so undone,
I reach to God, and to his Son
And they lift me up, and give me courage to stand.

Chorus:
I'm standing tall, when I'm on my knees.
I'm standing tall, humbled at his feet.
He reaches way down and takes hold of my hand
When I'm on my knees, he gives me courage to stand.

I am strongest at my weakest moment,
I am strengthened in my darkest hour.
He carries me throughout troubled water,
So I won't drown in a sea of fear and doubt.
Leaning on the rock of my salvation,
I'm lifted high by his almighty power.
And if I stumble, if I fall beneath the weight of life's demands
He lifts me up, and gives me courage to stand.

Repeat Chorus:

When I'm on my knees, he gives me courage to stand.
