I'll stand in the gap for my son.
I'll stand til the victory's 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 that boy.
Nor will You, for You promised 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 will stand,
Heeding Your every command,
With help from above,
I'll unconditionally love,
And soon he will reach for Your hand.
