God give me strength
In the face of this adversity
God give me hope
Give me a reason to believe
I try to live a good life
I try to do whatever is right
But sticks and stones eviscerate my bones
Till I can hardly survive
God give me,
God give me strength
Give hope and give me love
Give me something I can be proud of
Give me a life to lead
A hungry mouth to feed
Don’t sit and watch me bleed
I try to live a good life
I try to do whatever is right
But sticks and stones eviscerate my bones
Till I can hardly survive
God give me
God give me strength
And when your cross is hard to bear
I’ll pick it up, I will be there
To bind your wounds and heal your hurts
I’ll give you shelter from the storm
I’ll keep you safe, I’ll make you warm
Keep holding on, keep holding on
God give me
God give me strength
