A Stand of Courage by Mark Lajoie
"I wrote it at 10 years old.
Produced a demo in 2011.
Re-mixed this on April 15, 2023.
Perfectly timely for THIS moment."
Mark wrote the basic idea to this when he was ten years old. Circa 2011, Dave gave him the Noteworthy Composer app. Using this, he created different parts and then transferred the midi tracks to GarageBand and selected instruments to fit each part. He sang the vocals over this and put the result out as a demo. On June 15, 2023, he re-created the tracks and re-mixed them, resulting in what you hear here.
It expresses that deep sense that we were meant to give our lives entirely in imitation of and in union with the One Who made us, He Who is the Way, the Truth and the Life.
LYRICS adapted from the 10-years old version by Mark A. Lajoie!

Deep in my sor-row and my pain
There still re-mains
A pil-lar of help for a-ny yelp of hu-man mi-ser-y
With help from you and God I'll find out where it lies
And we shall de-fy i-mag-i-na-tion
With a stand of cour-age
A stand of cour-age
With a stand of en-cour-age-ment
With a stand of cou-rage
Yeah, Yeah!
Ooooooooo!
Spi-rit of love, Spi-rit of life
You are the peace with-in our strife
You are the key that sets the cap-tives free
You are the two-edged sword that cuts through all the lies
And we shall de-fy i-mag-i-na-tion
With a stand of cou-rage
He'll be my cou-rage
Won't you be my in-spi-ra-tion
With a stand of cou-rage
Yeah, Yeah!
With a stand of cour-age
Yeah!
