I Stand In Wonder Lyrics

Can't raise a dead man up
'Least I don't believe you can
Darling, you put the heart back in me
When I was such a lonely man

Now tell me why, why, why
I was waiting so long, yeah
Yeah, it's the power that you have
When I was weak, you made me strong

I stand, I stand in wonder of you
I stand, I stand in wonder of you

Darling, how you shared my bed
When I'm willing, you take my hand
When I'm troubled I rest my head
On your heart, I know you understand

Now, the world's not an easy place
Puts a man to the test
And when I come onto you
I know I'm deeply, how deeply I'm blessed

I stand, I stand in wonder of you
I stand, I stand in wonder of you
(I stand in wonder, I stand in wonder)

(I stand in wonder)
And I want you like
(I stand in wonder)
When I'm by your side
(I stand in wonder)
Where ever we go
(I stand in wonder)
Darling, we know

I stand, I stand in wonder of you
I stand, I stand in wonder of you
Oh, I stand, I stand in wonder of you
I stand in wonder, stand in wonder of you
(I stand in wonder)

I stand in
(I stand in wonder)
I stand in wonder of you
Yes, I stand in wonder

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
