[Verse 1] Don’t bear false witness, don’t speak a lie, Let truth be your shield, don't compromise. No slander in the streets, no gossip in the air, Speak only what’s pure, be honest and fair. [Chorus] Lies can't stand in the light of truth, They’ll fade away, they have no proof. Be a witness of the righteous way, In God’s truth we’ll stand and stay. [Verse 2] You’re of your father, the liar, the thief, Who’s been deceiving from the start, bringing grief. But we’ve been set free by the truth, we know, In Christ we’re redeemed, in His love we grow. [Chorus] Lies can't stand in the light of truth, They’ll fade away, they have no proof. Be a witness of the righteous way, In God’s truth we’ll stand and stay. [Bridge] A faithful witness does not deceive, But a false witness will cause you to grieve. Like a hammer, like a sword, A false tongue brings harm to the world. [Chorus] Lies can't stand in the light of truth, They’ll fade away, they have no proof. Be a witness of the righteous way, In God’s truth we’ll stand and stay. [Outro] But the cowardly, the vile, the ones who lie, Their place will be in the lake, where fire never dies. But we, the overcomers, who stand in His grace, Will find our place in God’s holy space. [Final Chorus] Lies can't stand in the light of truth, They’ll fade away, they have no proof. Be a witness of the righteous way, In God’s truth we’ll stand and stay. In God’s truth we’ll stand and stay.
