When We Stand As One

Every so often, as life flows on, Someone is taken : suddenly, they’re just gone.
We stand sorrowful and silent, Wond’ring how we’ll carry on;
Then we slowly come together, Drawing strength from our common bond.

Every so often, a storm hits hard, Changing life as we know it, Blowing our old world apart.
And we count up all our losses, And we cry a thousand tears;
Yet there’s something that sustains us, And carries us beyond our fears:

CHORUS:
Cuz when the storm comes, And tries to blow us down,
We stand together, Just as we do now.
We are all in this…. Together. And we will get through this… Together.
And we will learn from this… Together,
That we are stronger when we stand, When we stand as one.

Every so often, things can get pretty tough; The wind whips around us, so rugged and rough.
Yet there’s something we can hold to, to help us through it all;
And when we gather all around it, That is when we will never fall!

(REPEAT CHORUS)

Whatever we might be called upon to face,
We can pull through it all, if our hearts are in the right place!

CHORUS 2:
When the storm comes, And tries to blow us down,
We stand together, Just as we do now.
We are all in this…. Together. And we will get through this… Together.
And we will learn from this… Together, That we are stronger when we stand,
When we stand as one.

We are stronger when we stand, When we stand…
As one!
