[Intro 1]
[Em]
[B]

[Verse 1]
[B]Stand Up
Words and music by [Em]Ray
Boltz and Steve Millikan
Now when I was just [B]a little child
Enrolled in [Em]elementary school
That big 'ol teacher
Would ask me a question
[B]An d I'd sit there
Trembling like a fool
So I asked my daddy, I said, What's wrong [Em]with [Am]me? He said, Son,
if you know the [Em]answer
This is how it's got to be
He [G]said
[Am]CHORUS: [C]You've got
[Am]to s[B]tand up
And be counted
You've got to [Em]raise [B]your hand
And let [Em]them call your name
You've got to stand up
If [G]you [Em]want [B]to be counted
[Em]Lift your voice
[Am]And don't ever b[Em]e as[Am]hamed
[Em]The next d[G]ay at school
The teacher asked a [F#]question
[B]An d she shot a look my way
And I [Em]stood right up
And I [B]said, Teacher
There's something
That I've got [Em]to say
You know the [Am]grass below is green
[Em]And the sky above is blue
And Columbus [Am]found this country
In 1492You need to [B]stand up
And be counted
You've got to [Em]raise [B]your hand
And just let them [Em]call [B]your name
You've got to stand up
[Em]If you want to be coun
[B]ted[Em][B][Em][B][Em]
Lift your voice
And don't ever be ashamed
Now I believe the Lord
[G]He's look[Em]ing for someone
Who's gonna stand up
For the Church
[G]And [Em]he wants you to stand
[Am]up[C][Em]
On the street
And where you go to school
[Am]And where you go t[C]o work
[Em]And in a[G] world filled with
darkness
That's surrounded by [F#]the n[B]ight
Someone needs to stand
up for Jesus
And start to shine that Light
We need to stand up
And be counted
We need to raise our hands
And start to praise His [Am]matchless Name
[Em]We n[Am]eed t[C]o s[Em]tand up[B][Em]
[Am]If we wa[C]nt t[Am]o be cou[B]nted
Lift your voice
And don't ever, ever, ever

[Outro 1]
Be ashamed-
