Even If No One Stands

Verse 1
They laughed when I turned from the crowd
Said the road I chose was too narrow, too proud
But I heard a voice in the still of the night
Saying wrong is wrong, even dressed up in light
Verse 2
They danced in the fire, called it grace
But I saw the truth in a quiet place
And I won’t trade peace for a seat at the feast
If the table’s built on the backs of the least
Chorus
Wrong is wrong, even if everyone’s doing it
Right is right, even if no one stands
I’ll walk the line with my soul as my compass
Even if I’m walking with empty hands
Truth don’t bend for the sake of approval
And love don’t lie just to fit the plan
Wrong is wrong, even if everyone’s doing it
Right is right, even if no one stands
Verse 3
I’ve seen the silence that fear can buy
But I’d rather speak and be cast aside
For mercy lives where the brave hearts go
And justice blooms in the coldest snow
Bridge
Let the winds howl, let the shadows sneer
I’ll hold the flame when the path ain’t clear
For grace is not what the world defines
It’s choosing light when the cost is high
Final Chorus
Wrong is wrong, even if everyone’s doing it
Right is right, even if no one stands
I’ll walk the line with my soul as my compass
Even if I’m walking with empty hands
Truth don’t bend for the sake of approval
And love don’t lie just to fit the plan
Wrong is wrong, even if everyone’s doing it
Right is right, even if no one stands
