"MY STRENGTH TO LIVE"
Verse 1
I'm lying here. I've never felt like this before.
My heart is torn, and my eyes from tears are sore.
The nights are grim, the lights are dim.
I feel I have no strength any more.
Oh, help me find my way.
Chorus
Give me strength to love You more,
And mend this heart so hard and torn.
I want to give what's left of me,
Because You've always cared for me.
I want to feel You deep inside.
All my fears, oh, help subside.
I know that with You by my side,
I will learn to fly.
Interlude: -------
Verse 2
Without You, I'm powerless to love on.
I need Your love that makes right all the wrong.
I feel alone. My heart of stone
Cries out for You to breathe into my soul
The breath of Your Spirit evermore.
Chorus
Give me strength to love You more,
And mend this heart so hard and torn.
I want to give what's left of me,
Because You've always cared for me.
I want to feel You deep inside.
All my fears, oh, help subside.
I know that with You by my side,
I will learn to fly.
Bridge
I feel You inside of me,
I feel Your arms around me,
Holding me, oh, never let me go.
As You caress me, Your spirit overwhelms me
As You're tellin' me You love me so.
Chorus
Give me strength to love You more,
And mend this heart so hard and torn.
I want to give what's left of me,
Because You've always cared for me.
I want to feel You deep inside.
All my fears, oh, help subside.
I know that with You by my side,
I will learn to fly.
Chorus
Give me strength to love You more,
And mend this heart so hard and torn.
I want to give what's left of me,
Because You've always cared for me.
I want to feel You deep inside.
All my fears, oh, help subside.
I know that with You by my side,
I will learn to fly.
