Won't You Stand Up?

I was listening to our new album from Sugarland this weekend, and this song really caught my attention. The lyrics (from Sugarland- the Incredible Machine) are as follows:


All the lonely people cryin'
It could change if we just get started
Light the darkness, light a fire
For the silent and the broken hearted

Won't you stand up
Stand Up
Stand Up 
Won't you stand up you girls and boys?

Won't you stand up
Stand Up
Stand Up
Won't you stand up and use your voice?

There's a comfort
There's healing
High above the pain and sorrow
Change is coming
Can you feel it?
Calling us into a new tomorrow

Won't you stand up
Stand Up
Stand Up
Won't you stand up you girls and boys
?
Won't you stand up
Stand Up
Stand Up
Won't you stand up and use your voice?
:


When the walls fall all around you
When your hope has turned to dust
Let the sound of love surround you
Beat like a heart in each of us




Won't you stand up
Stand Up
Stand Up
Won't you stand up you girls and boys?


Won't you stand up
Stand Up
Stand Up
Won't you stand up and use your voice?


And a few layouts from the weekend

Have a great week!

  1. Oooooh, I love the wedding pages! Gorgeous! And, I am a huge Sugarland fan, so I need to check out that song. Pretty sure it will make me tear up, though, just like it did when I read the lyrics and looked at those RR photos. Thank you for always being so supportive and sweet. You are such a nice person!!! :)

    I'm just trying to get through each day with my sanity intact! Today we only had two big Victor meltdowns, which is great for him! Baby steps and no expectations, that's what I keep telling myself!

    xoxo, Kari :)
