Stand Up!

Come on, get up on your feet

What's it gonna be, Letter or Spirit?
What's it gonna be, Prison or Free?
What's it gonna be, the Heart of the Father
Or the slavery of a second Sinai
And the black and white religion
Of the salesman of captivity

Now, stand up!
For the truth of the Gospel
Stand up!
Don't live in slav'ry again
Stand up!
In the freedom of Jesus
Don't give in for a moment
To the traditions of men

Nobody's ever gotten right with God
By keepin' a religion o' rules
If a Christian gets twisted into believin' like that
You know, the Bible even calls him a fool
Because it's only grace and faith in Jesus
That got us into the kingdom at all
And if someone says it's different now you're born again
Man, they're heading for a nasty fall

So, stand up!
For the truth of the Gospel
Stand up!
Don't wear those shackles again
Stand up!
In the freedom of Jesus
Don't give in for a moment
To the traditions of men

When you really get a hold of the gospel
It's almost too good to be true
And everything's bought and paid for
And your spirit's made righteous and new
'Cause God's judgement fell on Jesus
Now there's none of it left for you
Your life's been hidden with Christ in God
There's nothin' left for you to do

But stand up!
For the truth of the Gospel
Stand up!
Don't get entangled again
Stand up!
In the freedom of Jesus
Don't give in for a moment
To the traditions of men

Stand up!
For the truth of the Gospel
Stand up!
Don't live in slavery again
Stand up!
In the freedom of Jesus
Don't give in for a moment
To the traditions of men
No, don't give in for a moment
To the traditions of men
