Songtext Standing Cherryholmes

Standing

Shadows in the valley, I can't see night or day
My Lord told me the valley's not where I was meant to stay
Climb, climb, yes I climbed to the top and still
Below me was a deep ravine, and another doggone hill
Life keeps trying to knock me down

(chorus)
But I'm still standing, I'm still standing
Standing on the rock of my salvation, that's my explanation
I'm standing, yes, I'm standing
Hand and hand with Jesus

Can't see 'round the corner, I'm so afraid to fall
But faith in only what I see, it ain't no faith at all
Cold winds freeze my bones, fire burns my skin
But I"m tursting in the Lord above, and not the man within

Come on, Life, try to knock me down

(chorus)

(bridge)
When you make your climb, don't look so far ahead
Just stop and look back at just how far you've come instead
Your Savior's climbing with you, you feel His strength abound
And anywhere you place your foot, can be on Holy Ground

Today I'm on the mountain, this you need to know
I see you in the valley, in the shadows far below
It's just a path you have to take until you see the sun
Just one foot then the other, and soon your climb is done

Life will try to knock you down

(chorus)
