I lost my way

I was in despair every day

Life brought me down

Turned my smile to a frown

I had all I could take

Didn’t know what moves to make

It didn’t take long

To see something was wrong

Then God turned me around

Put me on solid ground

And now I see

I’m free

I wallowed in shame

Didn’t know my name

I didn’t pretend

Cause I thought I’d reached the end

I began to cry

Without understanding why

I was in pain

Couldn’t see what I could gain

It’s old news

That I suffered from the blues

But God saved me

And now I”m free

I’ve fallen on several occasions

I’ve suffered many abrasions

Winter, spring, summer, fall

I’ve been through it all

My life has been a test

Just like all the rest

There’s no cure

Only prayer makes me feel secure

God is real

I worship Him with zeal

He saved me

And now I’m free

Don’t worry. God will never take His hands off you.

You fill me to the core

I can’t ask for more

Your loving touch means so much

What we share

Let’s me know you care

It’s plain to see

We’re meant to be

You do what you do

Cause I’m in you

You hold me close

When I need it most

You make me smile

You make me want to stay with you a while

Your heart is pure

You make me feel secure

You give me more each day

My heart will never stray

You do what you do

Cause I’m in you

Our love is built to last

We can forget the past

You’ve stayed by my side

My gratitude I can’t hide

You’ve shown me what’s real

I live it with zeal

I’m on solid ground

Thanks to the joy I found

You do what you do

Cause I’m in you

While you’re trying to figure it out, God has already worked it out.

I’ve been through the fire

Down to the wire

I’ve been down low

Until experience helped me grow

I’ve been the subject of scorn

Had my heart torn

While in despair

I found someone to care

He set me free

Taught me to be me

Thanks to the joy I’ve found

I’m on higher ground

I’ve cried my heart out

I’ve been full of doubt

I’ve been full of fear

Cause I didn’t know who was near

I didn’t think I’d last

Due to a difficult past

But God appeared one day

He showed me the way

Thanks to the joy I’ve found

I’m on higher ground

I’ve been shamed

I’ve been defamed

I was left for dead

Didn’t know what lie ahead

But I finished my race

At my own pace

God saved my soul

He made me whole

Thanks to the joy I’ve found

I’m on higher ground

God is going to do something wonderful for you. Claim it!

There’s purpose in the struggle

A test is a testimony

Just trust God only

There’s nothing to fear

He’s always near

He’ll give you strength

Talk with Him at length

There’s a lot to gain in the struggle

God will lead the way

He’s present every day

He’ll provide protection

And a sense of direction

He’ll turn you around

Put you on solid ground

You can build in the struggle

A strong character

Is worth going after

You’ll certainly see

What’s truly meant to be

Just continue your mission

With a clear cut vision

No matter what you do

God will carry you through

Faith will take you far

And heal every scar

In the struggle

Life is only as good as your mindset.

As we face the day ahead

We pray without dread

Our journey will be long

But faith will keep us strong

We’ll face every obstacle

Cause we know what’s possible

God will wipe our tears

And ease our fears

We’ll go through the fire

To obtain what we desire

We’ll learn as we go

Life lessons will help us grow

We’ll fall and rise again

God will help us win

We know there’s a chance

We’ll do a victory dance

As time goes on

We see what’s real

We live it with zeal

We’ll take our lumps for sure

Cause God’s love is pure

We can’t deny

The reasons why

We’ll have to take a test

Just like all the rest

Every battle scar

Shows us who we are

We’ll make our mark

Just as we’re coming out of the dark

Speak things into existence.
