Stand in the Gap

I stand in the gap for my son,

I'll stand till the victories won.

This one thing I know that you love him so

And your work with my child is not done

I'll stand in the gap every day

And there I will fervently pray

And, Lord, Just one favor;

Don't let me waver 

If things get quite rough, which they may.

I'll never give up on this boy

Nor will you, for you promise him joy.

For I know it was true when he said "yes" to you.

Though the enemy seeks to destroy.

I'll not quit as I intercede,

For you are his Savior indeed!

Though it may take years,

I give you my fears,

As I trust every moment I plead,

And so in the gap I stand,

Heeding your every command,

With help from above

I unconditionally love

And soon he will reach for your hand!
