Lyrics
When I need to take a stand, I'll stand with God, my Savior
For He is love and I am His. His light will not grow dim
when I'm feeling persecuted in a world that's so divided
where lines are drawn and fear is real, I put my trust in Him
(alternate first verse available in fully produced version)
ALTERNATE FIRST VERSE:
When I think I don't belong, when I'm told i'm not worthy
not as smart, not as good as the world surrounding me.
When I look into a mirror and question my own being
when the light of day and the dark of night,
casts shadows over me...
CHORUS:
He makes me brave. He makes me brave
He hears the silent prayers of the broken and the scared
He makes me brave. He makes me brave
Through the ashes, through the flame
I stand courageous in His name
He makes me brave. He makes me brave.
When the world tries to deny Him convinced He isn't real
I wont betray His sacrifice, the love that He revealed
He lights my way in darkness when evil mounts its throne
He's the brightest star in the blackest sky to lead His faithful home
He makes me brave. He makes me brave
He hears the silent prayers of the broken and the scared
He makes me brave. He makes me brave
Through the ashes, through the flame
I stand courageous in His name
He makes me brave. He makes me brave.
Bridge:
He shows me mercy when I break
He forgives my worst mistakes
on the weakest of my days
He is my strength
When I'm lost, He rescues me
When I am bound, He sets me free
I'm courageous, stand courageous in His name.
He makes me brave. He makes me brave
He hears the silent prayers of the broken and the scared
He makes me brave. He makes me brave
Through the ashes, through the flame
I stand courageous in His name
He makes me brave. He makes me brave.
