I admire, dear sister
Your struggle to surrender
To give up what you want, for what He wants
And I laude you, my sister
For your refusal to surrender
Not to let the things they say turn you away
And so I'll say
Stand up strong, cuz you belong
In the highest ranks of modesty
Stand up strong, cuz all along
You define the meaning of honesty
For your courage, under pressure
For the strength that carries you
Through the day, despite the stares
Of those who pretend, that they care
Their eyes judge you
And they question you
If only they knew
The things you do
About respect, about value
About the freedom to be you
To speak your mind, through and through
Always true
So stand up strong, cuz you belong
In the highest ranks of modesty
Stand up strong, cuz all along
You define the meaning of honesty
Why can't they see, that what you are,
Is beautiful, inside and out
Why don't they know, that it's your deen
That makes you strong, and sets you free
Why can't they see, that what you are
Is beautiful
Why don't they know, that it's your deen
That makes you strong, and sets you free
So my sister I pray,
You'll find, your way
And for a special day
When you can say
I'll stand up strong, cuz I belong
In the highest ranks of modesty
I'll stand up strong, cuz all along
I define the meaning of honesty
