Lyrics

Where Will You Stand
Words & Music by Joy Zimmerman

Anyone can take the wheel
The sea is calm, coast is clear
Anyone could hold the reigns
The road is straight, way is plain
Easy to stay the course
When we‘re loved the most

What will we do when seas get rough?
The mast is down, the hull is up
How to steer as waves crash ‘round?
A tempest storm, no compass found

Where will you stand when darkness falls?
The road is thin, would you let me in
Could you be the spark?

Can we persist if the sky comes down?
Betrayal calls, we’re on the ground
What happens next when there’s little left?
Lies swirl ‘round, we doubt ourselves

Where will you stand when darkness falls?
The road is thin, would you let me in
Could you be the spark?
Can you bring the light while the world goes dark?

Will we rise, choose to seek
A braver world where justice speaks?
What do we hold when the earth shakes?
Will we lend our voice for another’s sake?

I stand with you when darkness falls
The road is thin, I will let you in
I could be the spark
We could be the spark

Anyone can take the wheel
The sea is calm, coast is clear
Who are we before light appears?
