[Verse 1]

I spent a day by the river

It was quiet and the wind stood still

I spent some time with nature

To remind me of all that's real

It's funny how silence speaks sometimes when you're alone

And remember that you feel

I said it's funny how silence speaks sometimes when you're alone

And remember that you feel


[Chorus]

Again I stand, Lord, I stand

Against the faceless man

Again I stand, Lord, I stand

Against the faceless man


[Verse 2]

Now I saw a face on the water

It looked humble but willing to fight

I saw the will of a warrior

His yoke is easy and his burden is light

He looked me right in the eyes, direct and concise to remind me

To always do what's right

He looked me right in the eyes, direct and concise to remind me

To always do what's right


[Chorus]

Again I stand, Lord, I stand

Against the faceless man

Again I stand, Lord God, I stand

Against the faceless man


[Verse 3]

Because if the face inside can't see the light, I know

I'll have to walk alone

And if I walk alone to the other side, I know

I might not make it home


[Chorus]

Again I stand, Lord, I stand

Against the faceless man

Again I stand, Lord, I stand

Against the faceless man


[Bridge]

Next time I see this face, I'll say

I choose to live for always

So won't you come inside

And never go away?

Next time I see this face, I'll say

I choose to live for always

So won't you come inside

And never go away?


[Chorus]

Again I stand, Lord, I stand

Against the faceless man

Again I stand, Lord, I stand

Against the faceless man

Again I stand, Lord, I stand

Against the faceless man
