I will stand up for what is right, I will be a beacon in the heart of the night. I will Stand up when I hear the call. I will help my brother or sister when they take a fall. I will stand up when it seems to do no good. I will enter the battle, I will stand up and be counted. I will make my voice heard above the torrents of hate and rage. I will stand up for what I believe though others may disagree. I will seek out every injustice and try to make it right. I will never tire or give up the fight. I will stand up until I draw my last breath. I will take a final stand even in my own death. When they right of me, they may not find many things to say, but that I stood up, when it is your time what about you will they say?
