Strength (Song of Solomon Chapter 9)
Unwittingly, you stole from me
The pieces of my heart, the bruised and battered parts
And you bound them up with your selfless love
Something no one else was capable of
But that's not all you did
That's just the half of it
'Cause you showed me love and it filled me up
Then I felt your touch and I can't get enough
That infectious smile and that look in your eyes
Tells me that I chose right this time
'Cause you give me (Strength)
Strength to go on so I know I can make it.
Strength to smile now and I don't have to fake it.
Whatever comes at me I know I can take it with you by my side
'Cause you give me (Strength)
(You give me strength)
You give me, give me (You give me strength) strength
You give me
Before you, frustrated I waited
Broken promises on my plate but I ate it
While longing for the love of my dreams, back then I was so weak
I kept telling myself that this time would be the last time I'd cry
The last time that I'd endure malice and lies
No more sleepless nights
Then you came along with affection
In your arms I found peace, help, and protection
Soul to soul we made a connection
This can't be wrong 'cause you made me strong
You give me (Strength)
Strength to go on so I know I can make it
Strength to smile now and I don't have to fake it
Whatever comes at me I know I can take it with you by my side
'Cause you give me (Strength)
(You give me strength)
You, you, you, you, you
You give me, give me
(You give me strength)
You give me strength
The pieces of my heart, the bruised and battered parts
And you bound them up with your selfless love
Something no one else was capable of
But that's not all you did
That's just the half of it
'Cause you showed me love and it filled me up
Then I felt your touch and I can't get enough
That infectious smile and that look in your eyes
Tells me that I chose right this time
'Cause you give me (Strength)
Strength to go on so I know I can make it.
Strength to smile now and I don't have to fake it.
Whatever comes at me I know I can take it with you by my side
'Cause you give me (Strength)
(You give me strength)
You give me, give me (You give me strength) strength
You give me
Before you, frustrated I waited
Broken promises on my plate but I ate it
While longing for the love of my dreams, back then I was so weak
I kept telling myself that this time would be the last time I'd cry
The last time that I'd endure malice and lies
No more sleepless nights
Then you came along with affection
In your arms I found peace, help, and protection
Soul to soul we made a connection
This can't be wrong 'cause you made me strong
You give me (Strength)
Strength to go on so I know I can make it
Strength to smile now and I don't have to fake it
Whatever comes at me I know I can take it with you by my side
'Cause you give me (Strength)
(You give me strength)
You, you, you, you, you
You give me, give me
(You give me strength)
You give me strength
