Give Me Strength

Head down, eyes swell with tears
You were warned but you didn't hear
Looking back it's all so clear
It came to pass, your greatest fear

In a moment friends are enemies
Forgotten all your victories
Beaten down by a single defeat
For the price of your life you might be
Redeemed

This world it takes the best of me
You'll never have a guarantee
Before I move I come to You
I'm falling down, I'm falling down

To my knees, I give You praise
All my power is in the faith
For Your wisdom and for Your grace
I'm crying out, I'm crying out

Body begs for sleep, but your mind won't rest
Every possibility steals your breath
No easy answers to this test
Thinking it through but at best
It's just a guess

This world it takes the best of me
You'll never have a guarantee
Before I move I come to You
I'm falling down, I'm falling down

To my knees, I give You praise
All my power is in His name
For Your wisdom and for Your grace
I'm crying out, I'm crying out

Lord give me strength to overcome
You're the One I lean on
Say the word and it will be done
But give me strength
Lord give me strength

Give me strength to overcome
You're the One I'm calling on
I will fight until it's done
Just give me strength
Lord give me strength

My peace and joy I've sacrificed
To the lusts of the eyes and the pride of life
On the things in the world I've wasted my time
If they are not from You then why are they mine

You are my shield, You are my rock
Everything that was I count as lost
I deny myself while I take up my cross
Dedicating my life to the Son of God
Lord Jesus
Lord Jesus

This world it takes the best of me
You'll never have a guarantee
Before I move I come to You
I'm falling down, I'm falling down

To my knees, I give You praise
All my power is in the faith
For Your wisdom and for Your grace
I'm crying out, I'm crying out
