When days are going crazy
The world can make you lazy
Youre caught up in a haze that wont let you go
The borders in your mind bring problems and you find
Its hard when youre in a bind to live what you knowWords are empty
And they dont mean
That your dutys anywhere but your hands
Every ocean
Needs some motion
You gotta get on up and do what you canNo words Can take the place of action
No talk can change the truth so
Stand Up Its not enough to say it
Your faith is measured by the things that you doTheres more to every season
Than logic, rhyme and reason
People wont always know the plans in your head
If you aint always reachin
To practice what youre preachin
What good is anything that you may have saidFaith is empty
When you dont see
That your creed is not just some words you pray
Whats compassion
If its just fashion
What goods the map if you dont follow the way No words Can take the place of action
No talk can change the truth so
Stand Up Its not enough to say it
Your faith is measured by the things that you doRun where the road will go
Live what you think you know
Love is a gift you share
Working will be your prayerActions the price you pay
For the gift of each day
I dont care what you say
Its what you doNows the time to leap
Though its not easy
And miracles cant sleep
In your head
But how would someone act, if you really
If you believe a man can rise from the deadNo words Can take the place of action
No talk can change the truth so
Stand Up Its not enough to say it
Your faith is measured by the things that you doNo words Can take the place of action
No talk can change the truth so
Stand Up Its not enough to say it
Your faith is measured by the things that you doRun where the road will go
Live what you think you know
Love is a gift you share
Working will be your prayerActions the price you pay
For the gift of each day
I dont care what you say
Its what you do
