Michael W. Smith - There She Stands Lyrics






When the night seems to say
All hope is lost, gone away
But I know I'm not alone
By the light she stands

There she waves, faithful friend
Shimmering stars, westward wind
Show the way, Carry me
To the place she stands

Just when you think it might be over
Just when you think the fight is gone
Someone will risk his life to raise her
There she stands

There she flies, clear blue skies
Reminds us with red of those that died
Washed in white by the brave
In their strength, she stands

When evil calls itself a martyr
When all your hopes come crashing down
Someone will pull her from the rubble
There she stands

We've seen her flying torn and tattered
We've seen her stand the test of time
And through it all the fools have fallen
There she stands

By the dawn's, early light
And through the fight. She stands

    The word of God says, that there will come a day, when the enemies of a son of God will be the members of his house, and today is coming to past. Drugs have made it so hard. They went n made some of the family of a great servant from God, Venni Hinn, and many others, and give them drugs, just to destroy this great servant from God, ones they make a drug addicted person, they have the most effective slave of all times, this is reality today. How do you fight this ? In a way we don’t know, in a way I do know, by the might of God, but it will be not easy, one thing I know if all of us become cowers , there will be not hope for everyone. I will not surrender. Even with all my family against me, I will keep on going, when I go praying great signs appear in the heavens, but they are doing the same that they did with Mr. Hinn, but I will never surrender, for I know my God like my Father Abraham did, and God is first, like Abraham did, David Moshe, Elihu, Jesus, an Prophets, and Apostles did, there is a price, and is not cheap, and covered bye roses, if we read, the Bible, and believe in His author, we know it is not simple, so take courage in what is truth. It is through anguish, countless tears, countless afflictions, and is not bye force, but willingly, so we can see the real power from Real God. Please God, because without your spirit, we can make it.

    with tears, i love america

    Never forget 9/11

  6. i.... F....

    I was only 7 months old when the towers fell. When over 2 thousand Americans died. Though I don't remember it happening, I feel the pain and sorrow it caused. I'm the drummer for my praise team at church and I got emotional while we were playing this song.

  7. h.... f....

    This sounds like it can be more of a love song instead of the USA song just by the way it sounds

  8. A.... B....

    This is a song we will never forget. Thank you, Michael Smith. We Patriots love your music. God Bless America.

  9. D.... N....

    Our love of country is what makes us the greatest nation on earth. When all seems lost and we find ourselves in dire situations, our flag is still standing. I know that there are plenty of nations around the world that are elated in times of need or attack to see our flag as it brings the assurance of safety and loyalty and help. Wish we all felt a deep seeded love for this nation. We would be better off.

  10. L.... S....

    I'm in NZ but I was SO moved by that song & remember 9/11 like yesterday. Kia Kaha America!

  11. K.... T....

    Never forget... we were attacked within.

  12. A.... K....

    I am crying crying crying oh Jesus how great art Thou Hallelujah Praise you Lord Hannity tonight had a wonderful piece on this blessings Shalom

    I shared this this day of emotion of 18 years, September 11. Our nation needs God and Patriotism so much right now. MAY GOD BLESS THIS NATION UNDER GOD!!!

  16. C.... S....

    Here 18 years ago today, a day America went through Hell on earth, yet We prevailed. America ALWAYS Prevails, she Stands Tall!
    God Bless America & all the Selfless Heroes who saved so many lives !! ❤️💙💜🇺🇸🇺🇸

  17. E.... B....

    MWS nails it! Reminded of his song hearing/seeing 9-11 remembrances. Patriotic to the core. I pray the people that don’t respect or understand what the American flag represents are deeply moved to reconsider their motives.

  18. A.... C....

    Still bring tears to my eyes

  19. D.... C....

    Some closed captions would be really nice. I can't make out any of the lyrics.

    D.... C....

    When the night
    Seems to say
    All hope is lost
    Gone away
    But I know
    I'm not alone
    By the light
    She stands
    There she waves
    Faithful friend
    Shimmering stars
    Westward wind
    Show the way
    Carry me
    To the place
    She stands
    Just when you think it might be over
    Just when you think the fight is gone
    Someone will risk his life to raise her
    There she stands
    There she flies
    Clear blue skies
    Reminds us with red
    Of those that died
    Washed in white
    By the brave
    In their strength
    She stands
    When evil calls itself a martyr
    When all your hopes come crashing down
    Someone…

    This song always chokes me up & fills a tear in my eye. Do not worry though, for the Jesuits of Rome will surely pay for their evil diabolical crimes of planning and fomenting the loss of so many innocent human lives on that day, and for that they will surely reap what they have sown on the great day of God's Judgement at the Second Coming of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!

    This song touches me and I know everything happens for a reason the lord wanted to happen for a reason ❤️😭❤️

    There was a time this nation could come together as brothers and sisters and face anything...in more recent years we have been torn asunder by hatred and political divide and ANTI AMERICANISM. I hope we can heal this land and come together again. I hope we can save the Republic and stop those who want to destroy it and what she stands for...

    I don't know there is a time I have ever listened to this song "There She Stands" by Michael W. Smith that I do not feel great emotions & tears do not well up in my eyes!
    I think it was shortly after I graduated from Christian Life College in Stockton, California where I had studied in "Theology with a Christian Education emphasis" as my major that I first heard it. Indeed, for it was right after the atrocities on September 11th, 2001 that MWS wrote this, images from that day's events featured in this video of his.
    May America bless the Almighty like never before that the Almighty can bless America like never before! Amen.

  51. E.... E....

    love this song!!!

  52. J.... G....

    Give me the teary eyed sensation.
    Because of the righteous few (Refer to Abraham Story)
    This country is still not destroyed.

  58. P.... E....

    Micheal that song made my eyes sting. I just got done watching a news video of the California fire's. Some fireman were searching a completely charred neighborhood, in one of the house's completely burned to the ground they found an American Flag w/o a single mark on it. So they hung it up on a central pole as a symbol of hope for the people of the neighborhood. I thought of that video as this song was playing,and I went from my eyes just stringing to crying. Very touching song, nothing that I wouldn't expect from Micheal W. Smith, a real soldier for God. Blessings Patti Ellsworth 🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊

    Psalm 37 Fret not because of evildoers, neither be though envious against the workers of iniquity .For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither like the green herb. Trust in the Lord and do good so shalt thought dwell in thy land, and verily though shalt be fed. Delight thyself in thy Lord; and he shalt give the thy desires of thy heart.....

    We just remembered 9/11 - it’s 2019 and the Holy Spirit spoke this same Psalms to me while in Prayer for the Families!

    This is the 16th anniversary, and all people can talk about is how Trump didn't give a good enough speech! It's doesn't matter about a dumb speech, it's a day to remember those who died from such terror! Not to worry about a speech. Get over it, he won. Now shut up and remember those who died not under Trump.

  67. M.... C....

    Michael W. Smith is undoubtedly an incredible talent filled with faith. This piece is amongst his greatest. The music and text combine to remind us of that fateful day in our nation. I am filled with emotion and patriotism every time I listen. Thank you, Michael for your gift.

  68. J.... L....

    Beautiful🗽❤

  69. E.... T....

    It's sad and shameful how disrespectful so many adults and young people are to our great nation, especially Christians. I'm proud to be an American.

    WE OUGHT, NOT TO LET, THAT THE LIGHT OF GOD DIE, IN OUR LIVES, IS HARD TO JUST DO GOOD, LIKE GOD COMMANDS, BECAUSE WE ARE HUMANS, AND AFRAID, THAT GOOD MAY NOT COME BACK, BUT THE WORD OF GOD IS PROVEN, TO BE TRUE, AND FATEFUL, WE MUST DEAR TO TRUST HER, AND WAIT UPON HER, THERE IS STILL PRAYERS, WITH TEARS, PAIN, AND AFFLICTIONS, FOR THIS NATION, AND THIS ARE THE MOST EFFECTIVE PRAYERS, BEFORE THE EYES OF THE ALMIGHTY, WE OUGHT TO NEVER STOP, PRESENTING OUR SELVES, BEFORE THE GREAT KING, OF THE UNIVERSE, THIS IS WHAT ABRAHAM, ISSAC, AND ISRAEL DID, THE USA WILL REMAIN, BY BEING RIGHTEOUS, JUST, AND MERCIFUL, THESE ARE MIGHTIER, THAN ALL THE NUCLEAR BOMBS CONVINE, BECAUSE THE LOVE OF GOD IS MIGHTIER, THAN EVERYTHING. PLEASE LORD, NEVER FORSAKE THE USA, AND THE WORLD, WE NEED YOU, WE NEED YOUR HAND EVERY WHERE. THANK YOU FATHER OF OUR FATHERS, AND US.

  71. L.... i....

    Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. May we live our lives so God can always bless us. God Bless America!! AND all those who bless Israel.

  72. S.... M....

    The greatest ever. Ever Green Micheal.

  73. G.... G....

    God Bless Michael W Smith! Was Blessed to see him live three tines May he continue to Glorify God! God Bless Him!

  74. C.... A....

    Just so there's no misunderstanding and no one takes this song the wrong way, we must remember that our early founding fathers worshipped and honored God with all their hearts. They made it a REQUIREMENT for the Bible to be read in schools and churches. That was why America was great back then. God blessed the country and the armies were powerful and won many times, which is why our flag has lasted this long. Our flag has EVERYTHING to do with God. It's a symbol of His blessing over our country. But sadly, people aren't respecting it like they should. They take our freedom for granted and just live life because they can. They don't think of the soldiers and leaders who died for our freedom. We have it because God was pleased with us and GAVE it to us.

  75. B.... M....

    Im Brazilian, but love USA and I dream tor learn English to live there. (and excuse me for my english errors, i want to aprimorate). But hate Obama, and happy that after 8 years of destruction and communism, freedom came back with the election of a true president, Sir Donald Trump. Longing for Bush, believe me, his decisions may have been controversial for America, but they were excellent for the rest of the world (including Brazil). A hug to my American friends, and keep fighting, because you are the greatest democracy in the world. Congratulations to the great Michael W Smith for this beautiful song, and his love for the motherland. He's a great Republican supporter. Thank you my friends..

    It goes to show you that people are smarter than the leftists give us credit for - the liberal videos have almost as many dislikes as likes.

    FOR THE BLOOD OF THIS SOLDIERS, I MUST BEHAVE BETTER, SO IS NOT TAKEN, LIKE IT HAS NO VALUE, FORGIVE ME AND HELP ME GOD. THANK YOU.

    I always enjoy Michael W Smith's songs..,I never heard this one before, As a Christian can you help understand the Biblical perspective of this song?

    l.... a....

    +lili atom Hello there! I remember when i saw Michael W. Smith 10 years ago and played this song for the audience. We were all taken away. Here's the song story. Michael W. Smith said that he wrote it inspired by the 9/11 attacks. There She Stands meant that the flag was still flying in the US, and both symbolically and figuratively. The US was attacked a lot by iraq but america was still soaring and many people were able to still know how to love one another and give peace to others. The term "God bless the USA" was not just a phrase it was becoming an action

  91. N.... J....

    Even though i from India ! I am moved by the patriotism of the America ! gives me chills every time it listen to songs like this ! Love this song !
