I Survive

I can feel it comin’ now – that same old pain 
Tryin’ to work me like a prisoner 
Shackled bound and shamed 
But in my soul I know 
That You give me the strength it takes to break these 
chains 

I survive
Life keeps comin’ at me
Doesn’t break me 
I’m never going down 
Anytime
I need strength I know You’ll help me make it 
I survive

Don’t know what tomorrow brings
Don’t wanna guess
But with You by my side I know I can face any test
And so I’ll honor You by standing tall
And breathing in this love that I’ve been blessed

That’s my promise – Won’t compromise
You’re the truth – that kills the lies 
You’ll pull me through it – I’m not afraid 
You rescue me – day by day 

With you I can never fake it 
Won’t go down – You help me take it
Help me make it
