{VERSE 1} He was just a man in a foreign land, Living truth when the world bowed down. King made laws that no heart could stand, But Daniel wouldn’t back down. Three times a day he hit his knees, Windows open to the sky. They threw him to the lions’ den, But faith said, “I'm willing to die.” PRE-CHORUS When the darkness roared, his courage soared, He knew who held the throne. Not the kings of men, but the King above — He was never alone. CHORUS I will stand, I will pray, Even when the lions rage. My God is greater — Even if afraid. The wicked flee, with Him I’ll remain, ‘Cause the righteous roar again. My heart in Him — I’m bold as a lion. Yeah, bold as a lion! VERSE 2 Empires fall, and rulers fade, But Heaven still writes every name. They searched his life, found nothing wrong, Just a fire that couldn’t be tamed. In every test, his heart was true, Faith was louder than their lies. He lived the truth that kings forgot — Our God still rules the skies. PRE-CHORUS 2 Let the laws of men be signed in stone — They can’t chain a faithful soul. Every heart that trusts His hand Will see the story unfold. CHORUS (Repeat/Expanded) I will stand, I will pray, Even when the lions rage. My God is greater — I’m not afraid. The wicked flee, but I’ll remain, ‘Cause the righteous roar again. My heart believes — In Him - bold as a lion. Oh, bold as a lion! BRIDGE I hear the roar — but I won’t fear. Your angels stand, Your presence near. In every trial, You’ve proved it true — The power belongs to You. Kings may rise, kingdoms fall, But You still rule it all. You shut the mouths of every fear — And I’m still standing here! (big drums and vocal harmonies rise) FINAL CHORUS I will stand, I will pray, Even when the lions rage. My God is greater — I’m not afraid. The wicked flee, but I’ll remain, ‘Cause the righteous roar again. The grave can’t chain what faith ignites — I’m bold as a lion! Yeah, bold as a lion! OUTRO [(soft instrumental, distant echo vocals)] 🎶 “He delivers and rescues, His kingdom never ends…” 🎶 “In you — Lord - My hearts as bold as a lion.”
