She never slows down
She doesn’t know why, but she knows
That when she’s all alone
It feels like it’s all coming down
She won’t turn around
The shadows are long and she fears
If she cries that first tear
The tears will not stop raining down
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it’s all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won’t drown
And one day what’s lost can be found
You stand in the rain
She won’t make a sound
Alone in this fight with herself
And the fear’s whispering
If she stands, she’ll fall down
She wants to be found
The only way out is through everything
She’s running from
She wants to give up and lie down
Behind the Song:"I never thought this song would do well at radio because it had a very specific message about finding the courage to face things you were running from. Initially, it tested poorly and many stations wouldn’t play it. A couple of brave program directors later and the phone started lighting up. It went on to hold 10 weeks at No. 1. Recently, as I listened to the song again, I realized people were writing themselves into the song, and it took on different meanings to different people. That’s the amazing thing about ministry – you do your best with what you can see and sometimes God takes those humble efforts and uses them for much bigger and better things." - Max Hsu (
