Lyrics
[Short instrumental intro] [Verse 1 — warm baritone solo] Brother, if you’ve stood in silence, With so much you’ve left unsaid, Come and take your place beside us; Let us walk where Christ has led. May our lives reflect His gospel As we learn to heed His call; We will stand in faith together, One in Christ, the Lord of all. [Chorus — men’s voices gently join] In Christ we will stand together, One in spirit, one in faith; For His gospel, joined in purpose, Brother, come and take your place. Though opposed, we will not falter, Though we suffer for His name; For our salvation comes from God— We will trust Him all our days. [Verse 2 — growing resolve] When the voices rise against us, And we’re pressed to turn away, We will stand as one in Jesus, Faithful to Him, come what may. Called to trust Him, called to suffer For the honor of His name, We will share this road as brothers, Striving for the faith as one. [Chorus] In Christ we will stand together, One in spirit, one in faith; For His gospel, joined in purpose, Brother, come and take your place. Though opposed, we will not falter, Though we suffer for His name; For our salvation comes from God— We will trust Him all our days. [Bridge — quiet, prayerful] Jesus, give us grace to follow When the cost of faith is great; Keep us standing firm together, Trusting You with all we face. [Final Chorus — full men’s harmony] In Christ we will stand together, One in spirit, one in faith; For His gospel, joined in purpose, Brother, come and take your place. Though opposed, we will not falter, Though we suffer for His name; For our salvation comes from God— We will trust Him all our days. [Brief instrumental resolution] [End]
