LYRICS:

(Chorus A)
Stand, for Jehovah Jireh is standing by your side
Stand, the fire youre going through is purging you inside
Stand, I declare that your praises be revived
Still stand my brother, my sister, ohh

(Chorus B)
Stand, for Jehovah Shammah is standing by your side
Stand, the fire youre going through is purging you inside
Stand, I declare that your praises be revived
Still stand my brother, my sister, ohh

Verse
Come in from work being paid $2000 (JA dollars) a week
But you cant quit cause youve got a lotta mouths to feed
But on top of that you know you have all the bills to pay
Rent is due in a few days.
Yet it seems so strange,
In spite of your struggles you choose to praise Him anyway
Youre still happy to do what the Father says
And Im here to back you up and to help you say..

Rept. Chorus A

Verse
You ever have so many troubles yet, that you feel like you cant pray
Intimidated, insecure and from even people yuh(your) own troubles dem a drive you away
Dem back yuh up inna a likkle(little) corner
Thoughts of suicide plague your mind
You may be present here in the flesh
But in thoughts youre in another zone, another time.
But just like the young man in St. Mark 5
God knows youve been crying out how much longer
He said to tell you Im (he is) on Im way, so keep on fighting yuh (you are) getting stronger
There are some struggles that will bring a strong man down to his knees
But with lifted hands help me sing and step into your victory.

(Repeat Chorus)

(Vamp)
All youve got to do is lift your hands
In the midst of the storm youve got to learn to praise
Say Hallelujah, Lord youre worthy
Lord I love, I know you are able
I will worship you,
Youre awesome
My redeemer
My deliverer
I love you, I praise you
