"When the World around you crumbles

and you’re taking one more fall.

Just beyond your pain,

You’re gonna find your all.

Cause You’re not alone at all.

 

When my burdens has got so heavy

That I can't stand up alone.

I’m gonna lay my head down on one strong shoulder

I can't stand up alone.

 

Ah, you can't stand up all by yourself

You can't stand up alone

You need the touch of a mighty hand

You can't stand up alone.

 

In trouble, I have seen trouble (trouble)

All around my door (I’ve Seen trouble)

Go away and leave me old man trouble

'Cause I don't want your trouble no more.

 

Ah, you can't stand up all by yourself

You can't stand up alone

You need the touch of a mighty hand.

You can't stand up alone.

 

And the voice came down just like thunder

And light all around me shown

It said, get on up

'And grab hold  my hand

cause you can't stand up all alone'. (No you can’t stand up).

 

Oh, you can't stand up all by yourself

You can't stand up alone (oh No)

You need the touch of a mighty hand

You can't stand up alone. (No you can’t stand up).

 

Oh, you can't stand up all by yourself

You can't stand up alone (oh you can’t stand)

You need the touch of a mighty hand

You can't stand up alone. (No, no, no).

You can't stand up all by yourself (Don’t you fool you’re self.)

You can't stand up alone (No way)

You can't stand up alone. (You Need Somebody).

You can't stand up alone (One More Time.)

You can’t stand up alone!”
