There are times
I find it hard to sleep at night
We are livin' through
such troubled times
And every child that reaches
out for someone to hold
For one moment
they become my own
And how can I pretend
that I don't know
what's goin' on
When every second
With every minute
another soul is gone
And I believe
that in my life I will see
An end to hopelessness
of givin' up of suffering
Then we all stand together
this one time
Then no one will get
left behind
And stand up for life
Stand up for love
I'm inspired and hopeful
each and every day
That's how I know that things
are gonna change
So how can I pretend
that I don't know
what's goin' on
When every second
With every minute
another soul is gone
And I believe
that in my life I will see
An end to hopelessness
of givin' up of suffering
If we all stand together
this one time
Then no one will get
left behind
And stand up for life
Stand up for love
And it all starts right here yeah
And it starts right now
One person stand up man
And the rest will follow
For all the forgotten
For all the unloved
I'm gonna sing this song
And I believe
that in my life I will see yeah
An end to hopelessness
of givin' up of suffering
If we all stand together
this one time
Then no one will get
left behind
And stand up for life
Stand up and sing yeah yeah
Stand up for love
