(Verse 1)
I’ve walked the roads where broken hearts are scattered in the dust,
Seen the weary and forgotten losing hope in who to trust.
But something rises deep inside me when I hear that quiet call—
A voice saying, “You were made to stand for those who fall.”
So I lace my boots, step into the storm,
‘Cause every hurting soul is worth fighting for.
(Pre-Chorus)
And every time I show up with these hands, this heart, this flame…
I remember why I’m here, and I’m never quite the same.
(Chorus)
We get stronger when we serve—
When we lift somebody’s burden, when we answer someone’s hurt.
We get braver when we give—
‘Cause the power of compassion is the reason that we live.
Oh, the world starts changing, hearts rearranging…
When love becomes the only thing we’re worthy of.
Yeah, we get stronger—
Stronger when we serve.
(Verse 2)
There’s a fire in the darkness when a neighbor finds their hope,
When a meal becomes a lifeline helping someone simply cope.
And I’ve seen miracles unfolding in the corners of the night—
When a simple act of kindness sparks a soul back into life.
Every plate, every smile, every moment we choose grace—
Builds a bridge no fear or failure ever has the strength to break.
(Pre-Chorus)
We’re not made for standing silent while the world cries out in pain—
We’re made to lean in close, and light the torch again.
(Chorus)
We get stronger when we serve—
When we lift somebody’s burden, when we answer someone’s hurt.
We get braver when we give—
‘Cause the power of compassion is the reason that we live.
Oh, the world starts changing, hearts rearranging…
When love becomes the only thing we’re worthy of.
Yeah, we get stronger—
Stronger when we serve.
(Bridge – Big, soaring, emotional)
Every heartbeat is a battle drum
Calling us to rise as one.
Every act of love becomes
A spark that outshines any sun.
And when we stand for the least of these—
We find our own souls finally freed…
(Final Chorus – explosive rock finish)
We get stronger when we serve—
When we lift somebody’s burden, when we answer someone’s hurt.
We get braver when we give—
And the world feels a little more like home each time we live like this.
Yeah, the chains start breaking, new hope awakening…
When love is more than just a word we speak of.
Oh, we get stronger—
Stronger when we serve.
(Outro)
This is how we rise above…
One act of grace, one flame of love.
Stronger…
Stronger when we serve.
