elcome to Sunday Refresh 🙏, a column that seeks to highlight inspirational songs to uplift the spirit.  These tracks that appear on Sunday Refresh 🙏 may or may not be faith-based or religious; the goal is for them to make you feel better – refreshed.  So, for the 12th edition of Sunday Refresh 🙏 (2022), we highlight 🎵 “We Will Stand” as performed by 🎙 Russ Taff.

amen“Sometimes it’s hard for me to understand / Why we pull away from each other so easily.” You have a legitimate point, 🎙 Russ Taff.  Arguably, since 🎵 “We Will Stand” arrived back in 1983 (💿 Walls on Glass), things have only grown more divided; more polarized.  Here, on this moving contemporary Christian record, Taff emphasizes the importance of breaking down walls rather than building them up – unification rather than division. “If you believe in Jesus you belong with me,” Taff sings in inspiring fashion, adding, “The bond we share is all I care to see / And we can change this world forever / If you will join and sing.”

Bitmoji ImageWhat is the message that Taff asks believers to join and sing? Well, it’s one of the most moving, uplifting choruses you’ll ever hear. Joined by a choir, Taff sings:

“You’re my brother, you’re my sister

So, take me by the hand

Together we will work until He comes

There’s no foe that can defeat us

We’re walking side by side

As long as there is love we will stand.”

The song may be pushing 40 years old, but the lyrics and messaging still carry weight.  We should all work together and with Jesus behind us, we can’t fail! Inspired to the nth degree!
