  • All the lonely people cryin'
    It could change if we just get started
    Life the darkness, light a fire
    For the silent and the broken hearted

    Won't you stand up
    Stand up
    Stand up
    Won't you stand up you girls and boys?

    Won't you stand up
    Stand up
    Stand up
    Won't you stand up and use your voice?

    There's a comfort
    There's healing
    High above the pain and sorrow
    Change is coming
    Can you feel it?
    Calling us into a new tomorrow

    Won't you stand up
    Stand up
    Stand up
    Won't you stand up you girls and boys?

    Won't you stand up
    Stand up
    Stand up
    Won't you stand up and use your voice?

    When the walls fall all around you
    When your hope has turned to dust
    Let the sound of love surround you
    Beat like a heart in each of us

    Won't you stand up
    Stand up
    Stand up
    Won't you stand up you girls and boys?

    Won't you stand up
    Stand up
    Stand up
    Won't you stand up and use your voice?

    Won't you stand up
    Stand up
    Stand up
    Won't you stand up you girls and boys?

    Won't you stand up
    Stand up
    Stand up
    Won't you stand up

    Won't you stand up
    Stand up
    Stand up
    Won't you stand up and use your voice? Writer/s: JENNIFER NETTLES, KRISTIAN BUSH
