I know I'm not the only one
To ever stand alone in the dark
Not knowing how I'm going to carry on
But sure I never will surrender
I know exactly who I am
And that there's a purpose and a plan (purpose and a plan)

So I will stand (stand)
With my head held high (stand)
Even though I'm up against the wind (stand)
And I know I will survive (stand)
It is my destiny

I believe that there's a higher love
It's given me the power
To find my way through the worst of times
Turn them into my finest hour
And with that strength I will move on
No matter how hard I won't fall down

So I will stand (stand)
With my head held high (stand)
Even though I'm up against the wind (stand)
And I know I will survive (stand)
It is my destiny

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Yea hey yea

I know in my life (in my life)
I made my own choices (paid the price)
With my share of losses (but each time)
I only get stronger
And I know I've got the power inside

To stand (stand)
With my head held high (stand)
Even though I'm up against the wind (stand)
And I know I will survive (stand)
It is my destiny (ooh)

Stand (stand)
With my head held high (stand)
Even though I'm up against the wind (stand)
And I know I will survive (stand)
It is my destiny

Stand (stand)
With my head held high (stand)
Even though I'm up against the wind (stand)
And I know I will survive (stand)
It is my destiny
